SOURCE: New Scale out of box will not weigh correctly

Take a 5 pound bag of sugar, flour or what have you. Put it on the scale. If it is off, turn the scale so that you can check every possible place for an adjustment. Adjust and go for it!!! Good luck...Lee

Why does salter scales round up when measuring grams

Because you have a scale that weighs in whole grams not parts of a gram. You need a more accurate scale like these which weigh to 1/00th of a gram (0.01 grams).

How do i fix the cables on the sides of the door

Do you have a regular residential garage door? The height of the door should be between 6'-8'. Typically your Door will have two separate springs which run parallel with the upper horizontal section of door track. Since only one side is broken, repairs will be easy. Look or take photos of the undamaged side. Now look at the damaged side. Find out why the cable broke. Get a pen and paper and take notes. If you only need a cable. Remove the cable completely. This cable is your length sample, measure its entire length. How are the cable clamps and can they be reused? How are the pulleys? Are the bearings silent, tight and spin freely? Do both springs appear to be undamaged? Look for areas where the coils don't touch. If you find spots, condemn the spring. Springs should be the same age so replace them as a set if needed. If you do need springs. They are easy to obtain at a home improvement store, hardware store or online. Unless the information /tap is still attached to the spring. The hardest part will be finding out what your door weighs. You should be able to use your bathroom scale unless your door is extra wide, then you will need two scales. For wide doors, two scales,one at each end. For smaller doors, one scale, in the middle of the door. CAUTION: Do not let the door slam down onto the scale. Use wooden blocks that are higher than the scale/s and put them in place first. Don't be a hero or hurt your back. Ask someone to help you lower the door down onto the blocks. Then gently remove the blocks and lower the door onto the scale/s. After the door is on the scale you will need to carefully remove the tension on the other counterweight spring. How much does your door weigh? Divide that number by two. Write down that weight. That number plus the hight of the door is all you need to choose the correct spring for your door. If you have any questions please let me know. Good Luck.

Calibrate a mega weigh mgp-1014 digital pocket scale

Calibrating a digital pocket scale like the Mega Weigh MGP-1014 ensures that it provides accurate measurements. Here are the general steps for calibrating such a scale:
Note: It's important to refer to your scale's user manual for specific instructions, as calibration methods can vary between different models.
What You'll Need:
  • Calibration weights (these are weights with known, precise values)
  • The Mega Weigh MGP-1014 scale
  • A clean, stable surface for calibration
Steps:
  1. Read the Manual: Familiarize yourself with the user manual that came with the scale. It should provide specific instructions on how to calibrate the scale.
  2. Clean the Scale: Ensure that the scale's weighing platform is clean and free from any debris. This helps to prevent interference with the calibration process.
  3. Power On: Turn on the scale and wait for it to stabilize, displaying "0.0" or the default reading.
  4. Tare (Optional): If your scale has a tare function, you can use it to zero out the weight of any container you plan to use to hold the calibration weights. Place the empty container on the scale and press the tare button.
  5. Select Calibration Mode: Many scales have a calibration mode that you need to access. Refer to your user manual to determine how to enter the calibration mode on the Mega Weigh MGP-1014.
  6. Add Calibration Weight: Place a calibration weight of a known value onto the scale's platform. The weight should match the unit of measurement you plan to use (grams, ounces, etc.).
  7. Calibration Procedure: Follow the specific instructions provided in the user manual to initiate the calibration procedure. This usually involves pressing buttons or following on-screen prompts. The scale will often ask you to confirm the weight value of the calibration weight you added.
  8. Confirm or Adjust: The scale should display the weight you added as the calibration weight. Confirm that the displayed weight matches the known value of the calibration weight. If there's a discrepancy, follow the manual's instructions to adjust the calibration setting accordingly.
  9. Repeat if Necessary: Some scales require calibration with multiple weights to ensure accuracy across the scale's entire range. If this is the case, follow the manual's instructions for using additional calibration weights.
  10. Exit Calibration Mode: Once you've completed the calibration procedure, exit the calibration mode according to the instructions provided in the user manual.
  11. Test with Known Items: After calibration, test the scale's accuracy by weighing objects of known weight to ensure that it's providing accurate readings.
Remember that the exact calibration process can vary depending on the scale model, so always refer to the user manual for the most accurate instructions. If you're unsure about any step, it's recommended to contact the manufacturer's customer support for assistance.

How do I fix my scale it want weigh properly and how to reassemble it?

I could not find information about this old 30 # scale. It looks like a mechanical scale containing a large coil spring and a number of levers that attach to the spring. With that in mind you need to open it up and look inside. Once you see if the readout is fully functional you will need to find the screws to adjust it using dumbbells or bar lifting weights at 10 or 15 # intervals.

Tells different wieght each time

Does it tell you a different weight each time you weigh yourself in the same few times? Or day by day?
If its consecutive uses that give you different weights, if you're within 0.2kg, I wouldn't be surprised if the scale can't do better.
Otherwise, weigh yourself each day at the same time, and take an average of 3 weighings for the 'best' weighing.

Scale is not weighing correctly. Weighs correct

The scale must be on a hard, level surface. Make sure there is absolutely no dirt on any of the pivot points. Calibrate it with a KNOWN 25 pound weight.
