4. Setup

4.1 Battery Installation

1. Locate the battery compartment cover on the back of the device.
2. Use the provided screwdriver to open the battery compartment.
3. Insert one 9V (6F22 type) battery, ensuring correct polarity (+/-).
4. Close the battery compartment cover and secure it with the screw.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Powering On/Off

Press the ON/OFF button located on the front panel to turn the device on or off.

5.2 Zero Adjustment

Before taking measurements, it is recommended to perform a zero adjustment. With the device powered on and the probe not in contact with any material, turn the Zero Adjustment Knob until the display reads 0.0% or a stable low value.

5.3 Gear Selection

The device features a Gear Knob with settings from 0 to 10. Rotate this knob to select the appropriate gear setting for the specific type of textile or leather material you are measuring. Refer to the material-specific guidelines (if provided separately by the manufacturer) for optimal gear selection to ensure accurate readings.

5.4 Taking a Measurement

1. Ensure the device is powered on and zero-adjusted.
2. Select the appropriate gear setting for your material.
3. Gently press the induction probe onto the surface of the material to be tested. The probe is designed for non-destructive measurement.
4. Hold the probe steadily for approximately 1 second.
5. Read the moisture content percentage displayed on the LCD screen.

5.5 Measurement Principle

The JK-T10 operates on a high-frequency principle. The instrument has a natural frequency, and the moisture content of the measured object affects the frequency transmitted into the machine through the sensor. The difference between these frequencies is converted into a current via a frequency current converter, which is then processed by an analog-to-digital converter to display the digital moisture reading.

6. Maintenance

6.1 Cleaning

Wipe the device exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Ensure the probe area is clean and free of debris for accurate readings.

6.2 Storage

Store the moisture meter in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. If storing for an extended period, remove the battery to prevent potential leakage and damage to the device.

6.3 Battery Replacement

When the display indicates low battery power, replace the 9V (6F22 type) battery following the installation steps in Section 4.1.

7. Troubleshooting

• No display when powered on: Check if the battery is installed correctly and has sufficient charge. Replace the battery if necessary.
• Inaccurate or inconsistent readings:
  • Ensure the probe is clean and making good contact with the material.
  • Verify that the correct gear setting is selected for the material being tested.
  • Perform a zero adjustment before measurement.
  • Avoid measuring materials that are excessively wet or have surface moisture.
• Device not responding: Try replacing the battery. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
