e Platinum Series Powder Scale is a very precise measuring instrument.
We recommend using the scale on a at and sturdy table top in a clean
environment. e presence of dirt, dust, moisture, vibrations, air currents
or use in close proximity of other electronic devices can cause adverse
eects on the reliability and accuracy of the scale. It is also recommended to
avoid exposing the scale to extreme heat or cold, the scale works best when
operated at normal room temperature. For the best results we recommend
calibrating the scale every reloading session. (See Calibration Instructions
below) Aer powering on wait 30-60 seconds to allow internal components
the chance to stabilize before calibrating.
1. Press POWER button.
2. Wait 1 minute for internal components to stabilize.
3. Calibrate the unit if desired.
4. Wait until [0.000] is displayed.
5. Put the object (s) on the weighing platform.
6. Using the UNITS button, you can switch between weighing units.

the second weight 50.000, place the required weight onto the platform,
and then it will ash the third weight 100.00, place the required
weight onto the platform.
