My Weigh 8-300 Palm Scale
Thank you
Thank you for purchasing the My Weigh” Palmscale-8° digital scale. Please read
all operating instructions carefully before use. This electronic scale is a
precision instrument. With normal care and proper treatment, it will provide
years of reliable service. For more information please visit
www.myweigh.com.
Never load the scale with more than the maximum capacity. Although the
Palmscale-8″ is designed to be extremely durable with extra overload
protection built into the case, overloading will permanently damage it! Avoid
any exposure to extreme heat or cold, your scale works better when operated at
normal room temperature. Keep your scale in a clean environment. Dust, dirt,
moisture, vibration, air currents and/or a close 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. Avoid shaking, dropping or otherwise shocking the scale. 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. Failure to follow these instructions will void your warranty.
| Model | Capacity | Precision |
|---|---|---|
| 8-300 | 300g | 0.01g |
| 8-800 | 800g | 0.1g |
Always allow the scale to acclimate to normal room temperature for at least one hour before use. Give your scale sufficient warm up time. Usually 30-60 seconds before calibration to give the internal components a chance to stabilize.
BATTERY INSTALLATION
a) Press and lift open the battery cover located at the bottom of the
unit.
b) Insert 2xAAA batteries and make sure the polarity is correct(+) and (-

CALIBRATION
Calibration may be required when the scale is first set up for use, or if the scale is moved to a different altitude or new location. 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 can occur.
For Palmscale 8-300 you will need a 200g weight and for Palmscale 8-800 use a 500g weight.
