How do I calibrate a digital scale?

[Guest billwilly73]

OK, a friend of mine is getting into reloading and he bought a used scale.

It is a Fuzion Diablo FP 350 He didn't get any paperwork with it and he can't figure out how to calibrate it.

Anyone have one or know how to calibrate it?

Thanks in advance for any help.

My Dillon self calibrates every time I turn it on. When yours comes on, does it not read 0.00?

After seeing one online, I'd suggest you push the Tare button with nothing on the scale and see if it zeros. Just a guess, good luck. Looks like they are cheap enough.

I don't know anything about the scales. I tried looking for them on the net and it took me to all kinds of "herbal" smoking sites:rolleyes: Why would anyone want to weigh smoking material:shrug:

I think he figured it out, he called and said he did anyways.

I believe for distribution purposes.

Digital scales usually come with a check weight. My Frankford scale came with a 20 g weight.
