How to use

Hang the scale securely from a suitable support point capable of bearing the load. Attach the item to the suspension hook, making sure it is stable and not touching other surfaces. Power on the unit and wait for the display to stabilise before reading the weight. For successive measurements, remove the load and allow the display to return to zero or follow any tare function if available. Replace batteries when the display indicates low power to ensure consistent accuracy.

Recommendations

Use the Kern HCB 200K500 within its rated capacity and avoid shock loads. Inspect the hook and suspension point regularly for wear. When weighing items with irregular shapes, ensure they are securely attached to prevent swinging, which can affect the reading. Store the scale in a dry environment and remove batteries during extended storage to prevent leakage.
