Can anyone assist?
Yesterday i received a GMC Gasmate Gauge.
I have been trying to follow the instructions and seem to be having a few issues and have a couple of questions:
My 9 kilo gas cylinder (as printed on the cylinder) has stamped a TW of 5.08KG & capacity of 9.6 litres = 14.68
I have weighed the bottle with the GMG, 10 times and readings are:
10kg, 10.75, 11, 10.5, 10.5, 10.5, 10, 11, 11 & 11.75, say 10.5, a difference of 4.2
(My bottle was filled yesterday at
BCF).
Also if i move the "empty" marker to the TW (5.08, as per instructions
Gas bottle
GMG Instructions
) when i weigh the cylinder the tabs on the marker, stop the scales from working. To weigh the bottle, you have to slide the "empty" ring back to a position above 0 klg, or above the red marker tab..
Obviously i am doing something wrong, or have misinterpreted the instructions? Any assistance would be appreciated
