CASTON-III Crane Scale

PRECAUTIONS

Warning
Turn power switch off on rear panel when you don’t use the scale for a long time.

  • Do not disassemble the scale.
    When any damage or defect occurs, contact your CAS authorized dealer immediate for proper repair.
    Precautions

  • Do not overload beyond the maximum weight limit
    Precautions

  • Scale must be grounded to minimize electricity static.
    This will minimize defect or electric shock.
    Precautions

  • Do not pull the plug by its cord when unplugging.
    Damaged cord could cause electric shock or fire.
    Precautions

  • To prevent from fire occurring, Do not place or use the scale near flammable or corrosive gas.
    Precautions

  • To reduce electric shock or incorrect reading, Do not spill water on the scale or place it in humid condition.
    Precautions

  • Avoid placing the scale near heater or in direct sunlight.
    Precautions

  • Insert plug firmly to wall outlet to prevent electric shock.
    Precautions

  • Use proper Adapter.
    Incorrect adapter could damage the scale.
    Precautions

Attention

Do not stand under the scale while weighing the load, and you should be careful to provide against a safety accident. To install, safety pin in hook should be fixed to prevent dropping out from lift eye bolt.

  • For consistent and accurate reading, maintain periodical check by your CAS authorized dealer.
    Precautions

  • Avoid sudden shock to the scale.
    Precautions

  • Take the battery out when scale is not in use for long time. Leakage from the batteries is hazardous.
    Precautions

  • Place the scale on firm and temperature consistent environment.
    Precautions

  • Keep the scale away from other electromagnetic enerating devices.
    Precautions

WARNING: The load which hang on the hook should bea vertical load. (Refer to the next features.)

BATTERY USAGE

CASTON-III

  • Open the battery lid located in back of the scale and turn main switch off.

  • Separate the battery connector and take out the discharged battery.

  • Put a charged battery in rear and connect the battery connector.
    Turn main power switch on and cover the battery lid.

  • The drop of battery voltage can affect the brightness of display.
    To prevent this, the regular battery recharging is recommended.

  • In case the battery will be left without recharging for a long time, it is desirable the main power switch is set off. Otherwise, it also can affect the battery life.

Battery Usage

CASTON-II

  • Couple connector in main body with connector in battery portion.
  • Insert battery portion to the main body and turn fixing bolt to the right to fix.
    Battery Usage

USE OF BATTERY CHARGER

  • Check the voltage of battery charger before use.
    (It is fixed to 220V before shipping)

  • Insert charger A.C cord into the power source and connect the discharged battery to the connector.

  • Turn ON the switch on the battery charger, charging will start with Yellow lamp (CHARGE) turn on.

  • When the charging is completed, GREEN lamp(FULL) turns on.

  • Estimated time for charging is 10 hours(CASTON-III).
    Estimated time for charging is 6 hours(CASTON-II).
    (Charging time can be varying according to the battery condition.)

  • Using period when the battery is charged fully : About 15~30 hours
