Setting up the Scale
△
! CAUTION
Avoid using the scale in direct sunlight, as it may cause discoloration or
malfunctions. Place your scale on a firm weighing table so that the scale is level.
(The scale will not perform accurately when it is not level.)
Place the scale on the firm surface that is flat and level for an accurate
weighing.

Before weighing
Whenever possible, please allow the balance to warm up for 10 minutes after first
turning the power on, so that the balance will function properly and accurately.

Weighing Functions
Press [ON/OFF] to turn on the scale. When the power is turned on the scale will go
through a self-verification process and display all segments (8888) for a few
seconds and then "0" will appear on the display. The scale is ready for use.
Unit Weight Selection
To select the weighing unit press [UNIT] to select Kg or g or lb or oz. An indicator
confirms the selected weight unit.
LCD Backlight
Place the objects to be weighted onto the scale’s pan. The weight is then displayed
The scale has an AUTO-BACKLIGHT which activates when any weight is placed
on the pan. It will automatically turn off if the scale is idle.
Tare Facility
If a container is to be used, place the container on to the pan. The scale will display
the container’s weight. Press [ZERO] and display will read zero. Place items in to
the container and the displayed weight will be the contents only.
Plus/Minus Weighing
This is generally used for “Check Weighing” applications. Place a sample or weight
on to the pan. Press [ZERO]. When the display reads 0.000 remove the item and
place another sample on to the pan. The displayed weight will then be the difference
(if any) from the original.
Auto Power Off
If there is no activity for 1.5 minutes then the scale will automatically power off.
Low Battery Indication
If the power level falls below the required level then will be displayed. The
batteries should then be changed. To continue weighing with this symbol displayed
will result in non-accurate weighing.
IMPORTANT; Remove batteries if using AC/DC Adaptor

CALIBRATION
When and How to Calibrate the Scale
Calibration may be required when it is initially installed, if the scale is moved to a
substantial distance.
This is necessary because the weight of a mass in one location is not necessarily the
same in another location. Also, with time and use, mechanical deviations may
occur.
How to calibrate
1. Press and hold the [CAL] key until the display starts to flash CAL and then
0.0000kg . (3 Sec’s approx.).
2. Press and hold the [CAL] key until the calibration weight is displayed.
0.5000kg for model FKS-600 & 6Kg for model FKS-6000.
3. Place the calibrating weight on to the pan. Press [CAL] .The display will show
CAL and then PASS. Then the scale will return to weighing mode.
4. Press [ON/OFF] to turn the power off, Press [ON/OFF ] to turn the power on
again, Place the full weight (eg.6000g for FKS-6000) on the pan to make sure
whether weight is correct, if not, repeat the calibration procedure.
