The Rocking/Waving Shakers have been designed for the speed/tilt angle and
time functions to work independently of one another. The speed/tilt angle can be
reset without resetting the timer and the timer can be stopped and started without
interrupting the rocking/waving function.
1. Getting ready:
a. Plug the power cord into a properly grounded outlet. The standby indicator
light will illuminate, verifying power to the unit. Manually move the tray to a near
horizontal “home” position before powering unit.
b. Press the standby button to move the unit from standby mode. The standby
indicator light will turn off and the speed/tilt angle and time displays will
illuminate, displaying the previously used settings.
2. Setting tilt angle: Electronic tilt enables the user to adjust the angle of tray
movement while the unit is rocking/waving or while the unit is stopped.
a. Press the function button below the speed/tilt angle display until the tilt indicator
light illuminates. You are now ready to set the tilt angle.
b. Press the up/down arrows below the speed/tilt angle display until you reach
the desired angle. When you release the button, the display will blink off and
then on indicating the new set angle has been accepted. The unit will complete
one rotation at the previously set angle, then smoothly change to the newly
programmed angle. The tilt indicator light will flash until the transition to the new
tilt angle is complete.
3. Setting speed:
a. Press the function button below the speed/tilt angle display until the speed
indicator light illuminates. You are now ready to set the speed.
b. Press the up/down arrows below the speed/tilt angle display until you reach the
desired speed. When you release the button, the display will blink off and then
on indicating the new set speed has been accepted.
c. Press the on/off button to start the rocking/waving function. The indicator light
below the speed/tilt angle display will illuminate and blink until the set-point is
reached. Once the set-point is reached the light will stop blinking and remain lit
until rocking/waving has ceased.
d. To stop the rocking/waving function, press the on/off button below the speed/tilt
angle display. The unit will complete one full rotation then stop in the horizontal
“home” position. The speed indicator light will flash until the rotation is complete.
When the cycle is complete,the unit will automatically move to standby mode
and the standby indicator light will illuminate.
OPERATING TIPS
When the unit is running at slow speeds or high angles, making large changes to
the tilt angle or speed may take several minutes to complete. The quickest way to
make large changes is to stop the unit, change the speed or tilt angle, then restart by
pressing the on/off button below the speed/tilt angle display.
4. Setting time to zero (0:00) and continuous mode: Accumulated time.
a. Press and hold the on/off button below the time display. After three (3) seconds
the display will indicate the previous set time.
b. Simultaneously press both the up and down arrows, the display will indicate
zero (0:00). The unit time is now set to zero (0:00) minutes. Alternately, you can
use the up/down arrows to get to zero (0:00).
c. Press the on/off button below the time display. The display will indicate
accumulated time. The up/down arrows will become inactive. To stop timer,
press the on/off button again. IMPORTANT: This will NOT interrupt the rocking/
waving function. Press the on/off button below the speed/tilt angle display to
interrupt the rocking/waving function.
d. To reset, press and hold the on/off button below the time display. After three (3)
seconds the display will indicate the previous set time, which was zero (0:00).

5. Setting timed mode: Programmed time.
a. Press the up/down arrows below the time display until you reach the desired
time.
b. Start this function by pressing the on/off button below the time display. The unit
will run for the selected time, the up/down arrows will become inactive while the
timer is running. The unit will stop rocking/waving when the time display reaches
zero (0:00). Four (4) audible beeps will indicate the count down function is
complete. The time display will default back to the set time. To repeat for the
same time, simply press the on/off button again.
c. To interrupt an automatic timing cycle before it is completed, press the on/off
button below the time display. The time display will flash off and on to indicate
the time function is on “hold”. IMPORTANT: This will NOT interrupt the rocking/
waving function. Press the on/off button below the speed/tilt angle display to
interrupt the rocking/waving function. Restart the timer by pressing the on/off
button below the time display. Unit will continue counting down to zero (0:00).
When the display reaches zero (0:00), you will hear the four (4) audible beeps
that indicate the count down function is complete and the rocking/waving
function will cease.
6. Turning unit off:
a. To turn the unit off, press the standby button. The speed/tilt angle and time
displays will be blank, the standby indicator light will illuminate. The Rocking/
Waving Shaker should be kept in standby mode when not in use. To completely
cut off power to the unit, disconnect the power cord from the unit or unplug from
the wall outlet.

OPERATING TIPS
As a safety feature, a built-in program will shut power off to the motor if the tray is
prevented from rocking/waving, or the unit is overloaded beyond its recommended
weight capacity.
Built-in memory maintains the last used speed/tilt angle and time settings during a
power interruption.

TROUblESHOOTING ANAlOG ROCKER/WAVER
If the tray motion is obstructed or the unit is mechanically overloaded, the unit will beep and attempt to restore controlled rocking motion. If unit can not recover on its own,
disconnect power cord, reduce load, speed or tilt setting and repeat run.
Problem Cause Solution
E03
Mechanical obstruction
Ceased motor
Drive belt broken
The E03 error can be addressed by the user. Press the standby button to clear
this error. If the E03 error persists, along with grinding, knocking or rubbing noises,
un-plug the unit and contact your Ohaus representative for repairs.
In the event of an errant E03 error, such as someone inadvertently touching
the platform tray while the unit is running, the unit will automatically go to the
horizontal “home” position and restart. In the event of an obstruction left under the
tray, which would cause the unit to continually restart, the unit will attempt to auto
home and restart four (4) times and then stop running, displaying an E03 error. This
error can be cleared by the user by pressing the standby button.
E04 Maximum load exceeded
The E04 error can be addressed by the user. Press the standby button to clear
this error. Be sure the load is within the maximum load specification before
restarting the unit. If the E04 code persists, un-plug the unit and contact your
Ohaus representative for repairs.
