Page 4: 1. Introduction
2 1. Introduction this manual describes how this scale works and how to get the most out of it in terms of performance. Fg series platform scales have the following features: ? The fg series has three kinds of weight display resolution, 1/3,000, 1/6,000 (1/7,500) and 1/12,000 (1/15,000). ? There are...

4 u.S.A. Models indicators stable ? Indicates when the reading is stable. Net ? Indicates when net weight is displayed. (tare function is used.) zero ? Indicates when the scale zero is correct. Hi ok lo indicates when the scale zero is correct. Weighing units “kg” and “pcs” for metric models “lb”, “...

5 ? The re-zero , zero and tare switches work when the weight value is stable. ? The re-zero and zero switches will zero the scale if the weight is within ±2% of the weighing capacity (kg) around the power-on zero point. The zero indicator ? Turns on. ? If the weight exceeds +2% of the weighing capa...

7 cautions for installing the scale consider the following conditions to get the most out of your scale. ? Install the scale where the temperature and relative humidity is stable. There is no draft and a stable power source is available. ? Install the scale on a solid and level surface. ? Do not ins...

9 6. Remove the object from the weighing pan. ? The re-zero switch will zero the scale if the weight is within ±2% of the weighing capacity (kg) around the power-on zero point. The zero indicator ? Turns on. When the weight exceeds +2% of the weighing capacity (kg), it will be subtracted to zero as ...
Page 12: 6. Counting Mode
10 6. Counting mode determines a unit weight (the weight of one piece) from sample pieces, and calculates how many pieces on the weighing pan using the unit weight. 1. Press the mode switch to select “pcs”. (“pcs” = pieces) 2. Press and hold the mode switch to enter the sample unit weight storing mo...

11 7. Comparator the results of the comparison are indicated by hi, ok or lo on the display. The formula to compare is as follows: lo operating conditions (see the “function list f6”): f6-0: no comparison (comparator function disabled). F6-1: to compare all data. F6-2: to compare more than +4d or le...
Page 14: 8. Calibration
12 8. Calibration this function adjusts the scale for accurate weighing. Calibrate the scale in the following cases. ? When the scale is first used. ? When the scale has bee moved. ? When the ambient environment has changed. ? For regular calibration. Loose the lock screws on the rear side of the di...

13 6. Place the calibration weight on the pan with the same value as displayed, and wait until the stable indicator turns on. 7. Press the mode switch. The scale calibrate span and end will appear. Remove the weight from the pan, and turns the power off. ? Note the value set in step 5 is cleared aft...
