1) when this key is held dow n

while you are ro l l i n g , the unit will

s u b t ract the rolled distance fro m

a n y prev i o u s ly rolled distances or

f r om zero ;2) when in Count mode,

used to increase the count value by

one (pressing [Reset] will clear the

c o u n t ) ; 3) when in the pro gra m-

Adjusting the Wheel

The Celcon

®

polymer wheel can be

adjusted for each user’s preference.To

adjust the wheel,take a small,flat-head

jeweler’s screwdriver and slightly

rotate the screw located near the

wheel tip. Rotating the screw about

1/4 to 1/3 turn should be sufficient.

Rotating the screw within those two

values should adjust the wheel

between free spinning (which is too

loose) to skidding (which is too tight).

While in Metric mode, M E T will re-

main lit in the scale box.

Repeat the pr o c e d u re above to

switch back to Imperial mode.

C o n v e r ting Between Scales

The Scale Master Classic can auto-

m a t i c a l l y conve rt values betwe e n

s c a l e s . For ex a m p l e , 20 feet rolled in

1 / 1 6 ” scale will be conve rted to 10

feet in 1/8”s c a l e . You may want to ro l l

a value in one scale and then add that

exact value (unconve rted) in another

s c a l e .

Locking Scale Settings

Your Scale Master Classic c o m e s

equipped with a lock switch that

p revents inadvertently changing

drawing scales. When the lock is

activated, a lock symbol will be

displayed in the LCD. While active, the
