– FA Series Force Gauge
- Input a Correctional Value
Errors may occur through extensive use and overloading of the force gauge. To account for these errors a
correctional value must be entered to adjust the force gauge.
Note: In order to perform a Correction an object with a known weight must be obtained.
1. Position the device upside down with the hook tip attached. The gauge should be secured in the same
fashion that you plan to use it to weigh objects in (e.g. locked into a stand, by hand, etc.).
2. Place the calibration weight on the hook or hook-held platform.
3. Find the difference between the actual weight and the measured weight of the object.
Note: The scale must be set to a unit of weight for this operation.
4. Select Correction and enter the difference.
By entering this value the force gauge will automatically be adjusted by calibrating itself.
* Factory calibration can be used to reset the force gauge to its default settings from its original
calibration at the manufacturer.
