piece of wood. The detents on the pins that have been placed at a depth of 5 mm can be
used for alignment.
To start the measuring procedure, insert the pins into the wood. Caution: Do not use
force to do this. You should refrain from using other objects to knock the measuring tool
into the wood. Insert the pins into the wood using left-right motions.
The measurement begins as soon as the pins (5) make contact with the wood. The meas-
ured wood moisture content is shown in the display (3) on the line (a). The measured
wood moisture content is also indicated via the LED (4):
– Green: Non-critical wood moisture content (< 12 %)
– Yellow: Concerning wood moisture content (12 % to 20 %)
– Red: Critical wood moisture content (> 20 %)

Saving Measured Values

To save the measured value, briefly press the on/off/hold button (1). The saved meas-
ured value is displayed in the bottom line (b) of the display (3). A new measured value is
shown in line (a) of the display (3). After saving the new measured value in the bottom
line (b), the previous measured value is transferred to the line above (b), and so forth.
Two measured values (b) can be shown on the display (3) at any one time. The saved
measured values (b) are shown with the selected wood group and a moisture symbol in
the form of water droplets:
– One water droplet (corresponds to green LED): Non-critical wood moisture content
(< 12 %)
– Two water droplets (corresponds to yellow LED): Concerning wood moisture content
(12 % to 20 %)
– Three water droplets (corresponds to red LED): Critical wood moisture content
(> 20 %)
Tip: This indicator can be helpful if the display (3) is not visible from a certain angle or if
comparative measurements need to be taken.
When the measuring tool is switched off, the stored measured values are deleted.
Application Examples and Reference Values for the Wood Moisture
Content in Timber Construction
Wood moisture content measurement of:
– Firewood before is set alight: Prevents smoke formation and reduces emissions
– Parquet flooring before it is installed: Prevents gaps from forming after it is laid
– Wood for furniture manufacturing: Prevents deformation, mould formation, insect in-
festations and cracks
