3.5 Zero Function

If the scale does not display "0.0" when nothing is attached, press the TARE/ZERO button to reset it to zero before weighing.

3.6 Hold Function

To hold a stable weight reading on the display, press the HOLD button. The reading will lock, indicated by a "HOLD" icon. Press HOLD again to release the reading.

3.7 Peak Hold Function

This function captures and displays the maximum force applied during a measurement, useful for testing pull strength.

  1. With the scale on, press the PEAK button (if available, or a combination of buttons as per specific model instructions, often integrated with HOLD).
  2. Apply force to the hook (e.g., pulling a bowstring, testing a chain).
  3. The display will show the maximum force detected.
  4. Press the PEAK button again to exit Peak Hold mode.
