Operation
Your Digitial Fish Scale requires no assembly. It is important that you read the entire manual to

additional information.

activate the LED light. The LCD readout will display 0.00 and will flash when power is “ON” see Figure 1.

fish onto the Hook. Press the Hold Button down while the fish is being weighed; the Hold
Indicator light will go on-see Figure 2.
The Scale will register the weight of the fish in Lbs. Pressing the Hold Button down a

Maintenance
1. Protect the Digital Fish Scale from rough use. It is susceptible to damage from being
dropped, struck, or other abuse.

kept clean and dry. Occasional cleaning with a clean rag will extend its life and good
appearance.

Troubleshooting
1. LCD flashes continously: Battery charge is to low. Replace battery.
2. Display doesn’t change when Buttons are pushed: Circuit needs to be reset. Remove the
battery, wait 30 seconds, replace battery and turn the Fish Scale “ON”.
3. LCD display does not show: Battery has poor connection or battery voltage is to low. Take
battery out and adjust connections. Replace the battery as necessary.
