AXE Owner's Manual & Troubleshooting

Low Batteries & bad battery connections are the #1 cause of scale malfunction and inaccuracy! We

test all of our scale returns from consumers. Fully 60% of consumer returns are battery related
problems. This sounds silly but it's true! A scale will perform slowly, or read inaccurately when it has low
batteries. Please replace the batteries often (and only use good quality batteries). We include good
quality batteries with all of our scales but batteries can run low in storage. If your scale simply won't
turn on while on Battery power, this is often caused by loose battery connections. Battery prongs
(terminals) are made of metal. They must be making good contact with your batteries in order for the
scale to power on. You can use a paperclip to slightly bend the battery prongs to make them have a
better connection. Also some poorly designed batteries have recessed or partially obstructed battery
terminals. This may cause your prongs to be touching the plastic housing of the battery instead of the
metal battery terminal.

TROUBLESHOOTING NOTES:

1) If the Display ever becomes locked showing "Out2", please recalibrate the scale as outlined below

2) If the Display ever becomes locked on LLLL or EEEE, this indicates that the scale was shocked, dropped
or otherwise damaged and the delicate weighing sensors have been damaged. You can try recalibrating
the scale (If the sensor has not been hurt too badly it will work again after recalibration). Otherwise you
will have to follow the warranty instructions that came with your scale.

Although the AXE is designed to be the most durable pocket scale in the market, It’s important that you
never overload or drop/shock the scale. This scale is still a delicate instrument and must be treated with
care and caution. Scales are delicate instruments and unlike Cellular phones, scales have delicate
sensors that determine how much an item weighs. If you drop or shock your scale, these sensors "feel"
the shock and are sometimes destroyed. This happens with all digital scales. We design our scales to be
as resistant to shock or drops as possible, however there is no way for us to protect 100% against load
cell or sensor damage. A well-treated scale will provide years of reliable and accurate weighing.
However an abused scale will only work until it is damaged.

PLEASE READ COMPLETE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USE

Thank you for purchasing The AXE. With normal care and proper treatment it will provide years of
reliable service. Please read all operating instructions carefully.

.KEEP THE FOLLOWING POINTS IN MIND:

* If the display becomes locked on Out2 please recalibrate the scale.

* Avoid lengthy exposure to extreme heat or cold, your scale works best when operated at normal room
temperature. Always allow the unit to acclimate to a normal room temperature for at least one hour
before use.

* Allow sufficient warm up time. Turn the scale On and wait several seconds to give the internal
components a chance to stabilize before weighing.

* The cleaner the environment the better. Dust, dirt, moisture, vibration, air currents and proximity to
other electronic equipment can all cause an adverse effect on the reliability and accuracy of your scale.

* Handle with care. Gently apply all items to be weighed onto tray top. Although this scale is designed to
be quite durable, try to avoid rough treatment as this may permanently damage the internal sensor and
void your warranty.

* Avoid shaking, dropping or otherwise shocking the scale. This is a precision instrument and MUST BE
HANDLED WITH EXTREME CARE.

* Only operate the scale on a stable, vibration free surface. IMPORTANT: Do not operate near cell
phones, radios, computers, or any other electronic device.

.** These electronic scale are precision instruments. Do not operate near an in-use cell phone, cordless
phone, radio, computer or other electronic device. These devices emit RF and can cause unstable scale
readings. If your scale ever performs poorly, try moving the scale to a different room or location. This is
a very precise scale - the display may seem to wander or jump when weighing. This is due to air currents
or vibrations. Stable weighing is achieved when the display remains fixed for 3 seconds.

OPERATION_____________________________________________

Battery Replacement:

1) Three #357 button batteries are required.

2) To install batteries:

a) Release the battery cover by sliding out-wards.

b) Place batteries into battery compartment aligned correctly.

c) Replace battery cover.

DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE FORCE & DO NOT PRESS ON THE TRAY!!!

3) The scale is now ready for battery operation.

(Advanced users only) CALIBRATION______________________

IMPORTANT: This scale was professionally factory calibrated before shipment and does NOT need to be
recalibrated by the end user. However, if you wish to recalibrate your scale we provide these
instructions for calibration: Repeat calibration if the scale ever shows Out2. Incorrect calibration can
occur if you do not follow the steps exactly. If your scale does not perform accurately, please try
