5. Torolàlana miasa
5.1 Power On/off
- Press the red Power On-Off button (6) to turn the meter on.
- Ho faty ho azy ny metatra rehefa afaka 15 minitra eo ho eo tsy ampiasana azy mba hitsitsiana ny faharetan'ny bateria.
- To manually turn off, press and hold the Power On-Off button (6).
5.2 Selecting Wood Groups
The meter has four built-in wood patterns (A, B, C, D) for precise testing across different wood species. Refer to the 'Wood Species Group Table' below to identify the correct group for your material.
- With the meter powered on, press the 'MODE' button (7) to cycle through the wood groups (A, B, C, D).
- Select the group that corresponds to the wood species you are testing. The selected group will be indicated on the LCD display (5).

| vondrona | Karazan-kazo |
|---|---|
| A | Teak, Walnut, Afromosia, Rubber Tree, Imbuia, Kokrodua, Niove Bidinkala, Cork |
| B | Keruing, White Poplar, Beech, Cedar, Tola |
| C | Lauan, Ash, Elm, Fir, Maple, Padauk, Oak, Cherry |
| D | Basswood, Larch, Pine, Birch |
5.3 Mandray refy
- Ensure the correct wood group is selected.
- Carefully remove the protective cap from the measurement pins.
- Firmly press the measurement pins (1) into the surface of the wood or material you wish to test. Ensure both pins penetrate the material.
- Read the moisture value displayed on the LCD screen (3). The value will be shown as a percentage (%).
- Once the measurement is complete, gently remove the pins from the material.
