User and Service Manual

Introduction:
Model BS150 and BS250 are portable scales designed for
today’s tough and demanding remote situations.
Each scale comes with an internal, rechargeable
battery that provides up to

four hours with backlight on).
A built in carry handle allows for easy transport of the scale
to locations where AC power may not be present.
Operation:
With only four keys the scale is simple to operate – simply
turn it on and begin weighing. An automatic off
function saves battery life for extended operation.
On/Zero/Off
The first press turns the scale on.
Units – switches between units of measure.
Count –basic count features.
Zero – functions as zero when the weight applied
is less than 2% of the scale capacity.
“OFF”- Functions when the key is held down
for 3 seconds.
