CHARGING THE BATTERY

To ensure opmum performance of the W-1, the internal baery may need to be

charged for up to 16 hours before ﬁrst me use.

Important: If the W-1 is to be stored for an extended period, this should be in a

cool dry place. For opmum baery life, store the W-1 at 50% capacity. Always

charge the baery indoors.

1. Connect the power adapter at the base of the unit and plug the W-1 into a

power outlet and switch ON. The charging icon will display on the screen.

Warning: The power adaptor is intended for indoor use only. Do not expose to

rain or dampness.

2. When the charge shows 100% the W-1 is ready to use with or without the

power adapter.

Note:

• When the W-1 is in use, the baery icon will display

and show remaining charge.

• When using the scale and the charge level falls below 10%, the baery icon

will ﬂash with a red outline. You will have about 30 minutes to complete the

weighing session before the W-1 must be charged. When the charge level

becomes crical the unit will shut down.

• To check remaining run me at current sengs, from the Home screen, go to

Sengs > About > Baery.

• The baery error icon will display if the baery is too hot (above +45oC )

or too cold (below 0oC). The Scale will keep operang while plugged in

but will not charge properly unl at room temperature.

Auto Shutdown

When the W-1 is leidle for more than 30 minutes it will automacally shutdown

to preserve the baery. Press the Power buon to turn the unit back on.

Note: When the baery charger is connected, the W-1 will not shutdown aer the

inacvity period. The screen will remain acve.

INSTALLATION

Installing the W-1

The W-1 can be placed on a table top or mounted

on the bracket supplied.

Installing the Scale bracket

The bracket can be mounted on a ﬂat vercal surface, a

round post, or a rail.

To mount the bracket on a ﬂat vercal surface, or a round wooden post, use

the 4 x tek screws included with the unit.

To mount the bracket on either a vercal or horizontal bar, use the ‘U’ bolts

included with the unit.

Important:

It is not recommended to mount the W-1 bracket on the weighing crate or chute

as interacon with the scale can impair weighing performance.

Gallagher W-Weigh Scale User Guide

Installing the loadbars

1. Select a weighing site that provides a solid, level and well drained surface.

2. Ensure the loadbars and plaorm are well secured and clear of any

obstrucons.

3. Either bolt the loadbars to the concrete pad or locate them on studs set into

the concrete. It is important that the loadbars and plaorm sit ﬂat without

any rocking or twisng to avoid weighing inaccuracies.

Note: It may be necessary to shim the loadbars or plaorm to ensure there

are no twisng pressures within the plaorm. Weights should be evenly

distributed over the top of the weigh bars.

4. For Wired Loadbars: Connect the loadbar cables to the W-1.

For Wireless Loadbars: The W-1 must be within 8-10m of the loadbars. Refer

to the Gallagher Loadbars Instrucons for further installaon informaon.

A beep will sound indicang a successful connecon/ disconnecon of the

loadbars.

WARNING – Do not weld the loadbars or any structure that they are

aached to. Loadbars contain sensive electronic devices which will be

damaged by welding. Damage caused by welding will void warranty.

Position the W-1:

• clear of the plaorm

to ensure it does not

interfere with the ﬂow

of animals during the

weighing cycle

• within easy reach of the

loadbar leads if using

wired loadbars

• within easy reach of the

operator (for manual

weighing)
