4.1 Battery
Do not charge with
non-standard AC adapter.
Use only the AC adapter supplied with your FGV-XY. Do not use a third party adapt-
er. Doing so could cause a fi re or shock hazard. Contact your Shimpo dealer if you
need a new adapter.
Fully charge your FGV-XY before use.
1. To charge your FGV-XY, fi rmly plug the supplied AC adapter into the
gauge's power port, and then plug the adapter into a wall outlet.
•Charging will start automatically, and "BAT" will show on the LCD.
•Charging will stop automatically, and "BAT" will disappear from the LCD.
•Charge time: Up to 16 Hours.
•Operating time: Approximately 8 Hours.
2. To conserve battery life, only charge the unit when
"LO BAT" is displayed. Charging the unit before the
battery is close to empty will decrease the battery's life.
3. The FGV-XY is fully operable while charging.
4.3 Hanger
The hanger is shaped specifically to fit onto the
gauge. Remove the hanger bolt, place the square
end of the hanger in the recessed area on the gauge,
and tighten the hanger bolt.
Be sure that your fixture, stand, or
winch can support the gauge, and
the applied load..
4. When the battery's power is low, "LO BAT" will dis-
play on the LCD. If the unit is not connected to the AC
adapter, the gauge will power off in approximately one
minute.
