1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
The Ranger 7000 scale is a precision weighing instrument that will provide you with years of service if properly
cared for. The Ohaus Ranger 7000 scales are available in capacities from 3000 grams to 60 kilograms.
1.2 Features
Modular Design: Ohaus Ranger 7000 scales are composed of two interconnected modules: a Terminal and a
Base. Depending on the user’s needs, the unit can be operated with the Terminal either attached to, or remote
from, the Base, with a single interconnect cord 2 meter long. An optional tower kit and extended cord are also
available as accessories.
1.3 Definition of Signal Warnings and Symbols
Safety notes are marked with signal words and warning symbols. These show safety issues and warnings. Ignoring
the safety notes may lead to personal injury, damage to the instrument, malfunctions and false results.
Signal Words
WARNING for a hazardous situation with medium risk, possibly resulting in injuries or death if not
avoided.
CAUTION for a hazardous situation with low risk, resulting in damage to the device or
the property or in loss of data, or injuries if not avoided.

1.4 Safety Precautions
Caution: Read all safety warnings before installing, making connections, or servicing this
equipment. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in personal injury and/or
property damage. Retain all instructions for future reference.
Verify that the input voltage range printed on the data label and the plug type matches the local AC power
to be used.
Only connect models supplied with a grounded power cord to a compatible grounded power receptacle.
Do not position the scale such that it is difficult to disconnect the power cord from the power receptacle.
Make sure that the power cord does not pose a potential obstacle or tripping hazard.
This scale is for indoor use only.
Use the scale in dry locations only.
Do not drop loads on the pan.
Use only approved accessories and peripherals.
Operate the equipment only under ambient conditions specified in these instructions.
Disconnect the equipment from the power supply when cleaning.

2.2 Installing Components
Refer to the illustrations and instructions below to identify and assemble your Ranger 7000 scale with its
components. All components must be assembled before using the scale.
2.2.1 Terminal Setup
When the Ranger 7000 is delivered, the Terminal is already attached (docked) to the Base. No additional setup is
necessary. Refer to the illustrations and instructions below to identify and assemble your Ranger 7000 Scale.
Note: The Terminal is identical for all Ranger 7000 Scale models.
2.2.2 Installing the Wind Ring, Weighing Platform
1. Place the Wind Ring in position
(R71MHD3, R71MHD6).
2. Place the platform onto the
spider.
2.3 Selecting the Location
Avoid excessive vibrations, heat sources, air current, or rapid temperature changes. Allow sufficient space.
Note: Interface cables connect to the terminal. The terminal can be detached and mounted on a wall or
positioned on a table separate from the scale.
2.4 Connecting Power and Turning ON the Scale
The Ranger 7000 comes with an AC power cord. Connect the power cord to a suitable grounded electrical outlet
and press the ON button on the side of the base (see figure below).
Power ON button on the side of the base
Attention: Allow equipment to warm up for 60 minutes for optimal weighing performance.
Power ON Button

RANGER® 7000 SCALES EN-7
2.5 Connecting the Interface
The Ranger 7000 scale has 4 interfaces on the back of the terminal:
- RS422: used to communicate with the base
- RS232: used to connect to computer or a printer
- USB host
- USB slave
Interface connections on back of Terminal.
Thread terminal cable along cable coils on bottom of scale.
Or pass cable through groove near release button.
2.6 Leveling the scale
Only scales that have been leveled precisely horizontally provide accurate weighing results. The certified scales
have a spirit level to simplify alignment.
Turn the adjustable feet of the scale until the spirit level’s air bubble is inside the inner circle.
2.7 Remote Terminal Operation
The Terminal communicates with the weighing base via the Terminal cable. This cable must be plugged into the
Terminal for the Ranger 7000 to display properly. If desired, the Ranger 7000 scale may be operated either with the
Terminal attached, or remotely (up to 1.5 meters away).

2.8 Separating the Terminal from the Weighing Base
1. To detach, press both the Release buttons inward (both at the same time) and gently pull the Terminal
towards you (outward) until the Terminal is detached. These Release buttons disengage the two hooks
holding the Terminal to the Base. A cable is attached to the Terminal. Take care to not damage or
disconnect this cable.
2. To reattach the Terminal, press in the two Release buttons and slide the Terminal into the Base until the
Terminal hooks click and engage to hold the Terminal in place.
Release Buttons

2.9 Terminal Mounting
If desired, the Terminal may be mounted to a wall or table using fasteners (not supplied) that are appropriate for the
type of mounting surface.
2.10 Initial Calibration
When the Scale is first installed, and when it is moved to another location, it must be calibrated to ensure accurate
weighing results.
2.10.1 Internal calibration
R71MHD models have built in AutoCal which can calibrate the scale automatically and does not require calibration
masses. If preferred, the scale can be manually calibrated with external masses. Have the appropriate calibration
masses available before beginning calibration. Refer to the Calibration Section for masses and calibration
procedure.
2.10.2 External calibration
R71MD models can only be manually calibrated with external masses.
