2. Safety
Sharp Measurement Prods: The prods are very sharp as they are
intended to penetrate through dense bales. Store prods and other
accessories in the carrying case when not in use to avoid unintentional
injury.
Meter Calibration: Meters are factory-calibrated prior to shipment.
Calibration should be checked before performing a job (using the
internal Cal Check feature or external MCS calibration standard) to ensure
the meter is working correctly and electrically accurate.
Proper Use: When used properly, the FX-20 can help users make
informed decisions on the hay moisture levels throughout
production and storage. A moisture meter is a secondary method of
determining moisture content, and users should be aware of other
potential influences on the accuracy of conductance meter readings.
