NOTE
On soils that have not previously been checked by a
nuclear gauge, a moisture sample may be obtained
at a point of test to determine if a correction factor is
needed. If a correction factor is necessary, it can be
determined by following the procedures starting on
page 5-2. A correction factor for a given soil need
only be determined once. The correction can then be
reused in future testing with the same gauge.
1. Press the 〈MEASURE〉 key. The display will show the gauge
counting and ERR in the upper-left corner. After one minute
the counting will stop.
2. Press 〈WD〉 and record the Wet Density (kg per cubic meter
or PCF).
3. Press 〈M〉 and record the Moisture.
4. Press 〈DD〉 and record the Dry Density (WD-M).
5. Press 〈%M〉 and record percent moisture (M divided by DD)
