Instruction for Use
1. Please keep the scale in a cool dry place. Do not store it at high temperature.
2. Avoid objects impacting with the scale. Do not drop loads onto the scale or subject the
weigh pan to any strong shock loads.
3. The load placed on the weigh pan must not exceed the maximum weighing capacity of
the scale.
4. If the scale is not going to be used for some time, please clean it and store it in a plastic
bag in dry conditions. A desiccant sachet may be included to prevent any moisture
build up.
Preparing To Use the Scale
1. Adjust the four levelling feet (if fitted) to set the scale pan level using the spirit level
bubble located at the front of the scale.
2. Avoid operating the scale in direct sunlight or drafts of any kind.
3. If possible avoid connecting the scale to ac power outlet sockets which are adjacent to
other appliances to minimise the possibility of interference affecting the performance of
the scale.
4. Remove any weight that might be on the weigh pan
before the scale is switched on and avoid leaving
weight on the pan for long periods of time
5. All goods weighed should be placed in the centre of
the weigh pan for accurate weighing. The overall
dimensions of the goods being weighed should not
exceed the dimension of the weigh pan.
6. We suggest to warm up the scale for 15~20 minutes
before operation to ensure best accuracy.
7. Please note when the symbol keeps flashing on
the screen, the batteries need to be replaced. Please
ensure batteries are facing to the front before placing
them back.
Thank you for purchasing EXCELL waterproof
weighing scale. In order to use the scale properly,
please read this instruction carefully before use. If
you have a problem concerning the scale, please
contact your supplier.

Low Battery Warning
When shows up, it will have approximately 10 hours of operation left. Then
symbol will flash on the display; please replace the dry batteries soon when one of those
two symbols appears.
When the battery voltage is less than 3.8 V, the scale would power off automatically.
1-3 Panel and Keyboard Introduction
Icon Introduction
STABLE
:The weight is stable.
GROSS
:The scale is in the gross mode. The display shows the goods and any
container weight. This Gross status indication is on when the TARE
function is used.
:The unit weight is not sufficient. When the icon is on, the counting
function is operational but the count may contain errors.
:The sampling size is not sufficient When the icon is on, the counting
function is operational but the count may contain errors.
RANGE 1
:Only available for multi-range models
RANGE 2
:Only available for multi-range models
Keyboard Function
ON/ZERO KEY
This key possesses two functions: Power On and Zero function.
OFF KEY
When the scale is switched on, press the OFF key, the scale will switch off.
TARE KEY
The tare function will not operate during the following conditions:
1. When the scale powers on if the weight is negative and after a container is placed on
the weigh pan if the weight is still below zero.
2. The tare value is over the full scale capacity.
RANGE 1 RANGE 2

UNITS KEY
Press the UNITS key to switch weight units; the icons will indicate the active units.
NET/GROSS KEY
In the Tare mode, the screen displays the “TARE” icon; press the NET/GROSS key to
switch between the “Net value” and the “Gross value”.
1-4 Operating the Scale
POWER ON
When the scale is off, press the ON/ZERO key, the scale will switch on.
POWER OFF
When the scale is on, press the OFF key, the scale will switch off.
ZERO
When the weigh pan is empty (free of load) and the display is not showing zero, press
the ON/ZERO key to zero the scale. At zero, the “0” indication is on.
When the weight value is within the zero range, the zero function operates to zero the
scale or cancel the tare function.
Zero range: The OIML & NTEP models have a zero range of 2% of Full Scale. The
Sri Lanka model has a zero range of 4% of Full Scale.
SWITCHING UNITS
Press the UNITS key to switch weight units, the icons or arrows will indicate the
active units as appropriate. The units available are dependent on the exact scale
model.
After power off, the scale will memorize the active units. When the scale is powered on
again, it displays the previously active units.
TARE FUNCTION
(1) Put a container on the weigh pan and after the weight is stable, press the TARE
key to zero the weight of the container. The screen displays the “Net” icon.
(2) Put the goods in the container, the screen displays the net weight value of the
goods.
(3) Remove the full container; the screen displays the negative weight value of the
container. At this time pressing the TARE key again will cancel the tare and the
scale reverts back to zero. The “Net” icon is switched off.
The tare function can be operated continually to the full weighing capacity of the scale.
Continual tare operation is adding or removing tare objects on weigh pan and pressing
the TARE key each time.
NET/GROSS FUNCTION
In the Tare mode, the screen displays the “Net” icon, press the NET/GROSS key to
switch between the “Net value” and the “Gross value”.
When the GROSS icon is on, the weight value on the display is the total amount of
the tare value and net value.
At the Gross status, only OFF and NET/GROSS keys are functional.
NET/GROSS key is only used in Tare mode.

The LCD shows , , , , in order.
(3) Put the samples on the weigh pan and press the UNITS key, the screen displays
“------”. After the sampling process is complete, put the goods on the weigh pan
and the screen shows the quantity of the items.
The sample weight should be heavier than the minimum capacity of the scale (20d), If
not the arrow pointing to the icon will be activated.
The weight of a sample should be heavier than the 0.2d (d=division), or the arrow
pointing to the icon will be on.
When the or are indicated, the scale is still operational but the count may
contain errors.
To power off in this mode, the scale will memorize the “Pcs” unit. When the scale is
powered on again, it directly enters the simple counting mode.
While the “Auto unit weight average”function is available in theAdvanced Function,
the goods on the weigh pan are 5pcs greater than the sample size and less than
double the sample size, the scale will automatically re-sample the unit weight.
