Operating Procedure - Normal Operation - AgraTronix AG-MAC PLUS Mode D'emploi

CAUTION: Please treat your instrument with care. Misuse such as tossing or
dropping the unit can potentially damage the weigh scale mechanism, or other
parts of this device. To add the ability to measure grain test weight results in a
more complex grain testing instrument.
Use a soft, clean cloth to wipe out the cell, using extreme caution no to dam-
age the grain temperature sensor at the bottom of the test cell. It is important
when emptying the tester to make sure there is no grain lodged in the cell top
ring (see page 16 for Troubleshooting).
SECURING THE HOPPER
1. Place the back hopper tab into the center of the base (Figure 2a).
2. Pull level arm forward (Figure 2b) and the hopper will lock into place once
the level arm is released.
