What does the “LOBAT” display on the 2188 Digital Hay Moisture Meter mean?
The “LOBAT” display means that the battery is running low and needs replacing. Always use a ALKALINE 9 Volt battery and calibrate the meter after replacing the battery.
How do I take moisture readings in the windrow?
Check the windrows at several locations by turning the windrow up on its side and selecting a handful of hay from the bottom. Twist the sample handful into a tight knot, trying to simulate the density of a bale. Insert the metal tip of the probe into the tightest part of the knot, so that both metal parts of the tip are within the knot.
