4.0 OPERATION 
 
4.1  ZEROING THE DISPLAY 
 
You can press the [Zero] key when no tare is entered to set the zero point from which all 
other weighing is measured. This will usually be necessary when the platform is empty.  
 
When the zero point is obtained the Weight display will show an arrow next to the Zero 
legend marked under the Weight display.  
 
The scale has an automatic re-zeroing function to account for minor drifting or 
accumulation of material on the platform. However you may need to press the [Zero] key 
to re-zero the scale if small amounts of weight are shown when the platform is empty. 
4.2 TARING 
 
Taring is used to eliminate the weight of a container so that only the net weight is 
displayed.  
 
Zero the scale by pressing [Zero] if necessary. The zero indicator will be on. 
 
Place an empty container on the platform. It’s weight will be displayed. 
 
Press [Tare] to zero the scale. The weight that was displayed is stored as the tare value 
and that value is subtracted from the display, leaving zero on the display. The Net 
indicator will be on. As product is added only the weight of the product will be shown.  
 
When the product and container are removed the weight display will show a negative 
value. If a different container is to be used, remove this negative tare value by pressing the 
[Tare] once more.
