B140 Counting Scale User Instructions
2 Introduction
This manual covers the Model B140 counting scale. Please read all operating
instructions carefully before use.
Unpack the scale and install the battery if it was not factory installed. Plug the charging
unit into a properly grounded outlet. The charging plug fits into a receptacle on the
bottom of the scale in the left rear corner. Charge the battery for a full 12 hours before
using the scale. Battery life when fully charged is approximately 20 hours.
Place the scale on a stable, level surface in an area free of drafts.
Level the scale using the adjustable feet and the bubble level at the lower left of the
front panel. Tighten the locking ring on each foot once the scale is level.
Supply power to the scale by moving the power switch to ON. The power switch is
located on the bottom of the scale.
Lo.bAt is displayed in the VALUE / WEIGHT window when the battery voltage gets
low. If voltage drops too low for operation, a beeper will sound for two minutes before
the scale automatically shuts off.
The battery will charge while operating the scale on AC power.
