Tatūnga

Tāuta Pūhiko

The Tadeto Digital Moisture Meter WM700 requires two 1.5V AAA batteries (included). To install or replace batteries:

  1. Kimihia te wahanga pākahiko kei muri o te taputapu.
  2. Whakatuwheratia te uhi o te wahanga pākahiko.
  3. Whakauruhia nga pākahiko AAA e rua, kia tika te polarity (+ me te -).
  4. Katia kia mau te uhi o te wahanga pākahiko.

When the battery is low, the LCD will display a low voltage symbol, indicating that the batteries need to be replaced.

Nga Tohutohu Whakahaere

Te Hiko / Whakaweto

Patohia me te pupuri i te ARATU/Mana button to turn the device on or off. The device features an automatic shutdown function after approximately 10 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery life.

Step 1: Pressing the power button on the moisture meter

Selecting Measurement Mode (Material Type)

The meter offers two main measurement modes: Wood and Building Materials. These are further categorized into 7 material groups (MAT 1-7) for enhanced accuracy.

  1. I muri i te whakakaha, pehia te SET button repeatedly to cycle through the material groups (MAT 1 to MAT 7).
  2. Refer to the table below or the device's quick reference guide for the appropriate material group for your measurement.
    • MAT 1-3: For various types of wood.
    • MAT 4-7: For different building materials (e.g., concrete, plaster, brick).
Step 2: Setting the desired measurement mode using the SET button

Taking a Moisture Measurement

  1. Ensure the protective cap is removed from the measurement pins.
  2. Kōwhiria te aratau rauemi e tika ana mā te whakamahi i te SET pātene.
  3. Carefully push the measurement pins into the material you wish to test. Ensure both pins are fully inserted for an accurate reading.
  4. Read the moisture content percentage whakaaturia ana ki te mata LCD.
  5. After measurement, gently pull the pins out and replace the protective cap.
Step 3: Inserting the moisture meter pins into a piece of wood for measurement

Ambient Temperature and Humidity Measurement

The device can also display the current ambient temperature and humidity.

  1. After powering on, briefly press the ARATU/Mana button. The display will switch to show ambient temperature and humidity.
  2. Hei whakawhiti i waenga i ngā wae pāmahana Celsius (°C) me Fahrenheit (°F), pēhi i te pātene SET button while the ambient temperature is displayed.

Te whakatikatika

The protective cap includes a built-in test board for quick calibration to ensure measurement accuracy.

  1. Tangohia te potae whakamarumaru mai i nga titi inenga.
  2. Insert the measurement pins into the two holes on the test board located on the inside of the protective cap.
  3. The display should show a reference value (e.g., T-52% / B-27% ±5%). If the reading deviates significantly, the device may require service.
