Product Information
Full details
The MonsterShop T-Mech 50 x 50cm vet scales are designed for professionals in veterinary practices, farms, zoos, and animal trusts needing to accurately weigh animals up to 300kg. Their key benefit lies in the low-profile, stable platform that simplifies animal handling and a remote, backlit display for easy reading. A minor caveat is that AA batteries are not included, requiring a separate purchase for portable use. The scales offer a robust stainless steel weighing area, precise measurements in kg or lb, and a useful tare function.

Troubleshooting
Scales are not turning on.
Ensure the mains adaptor is securely plugged into both the scale and a working power outlet. If using batteries, check that they are inserted correctly and have sufficient charge. Replace batteries if necessary.
Display shows an error code (e.g., 'Err', 'UnSt').
Check that the scales are on a level surface and that no part of the scale is touching the floor or other objects. Ensure the platform is not overloaded beyond its 300kg capacity. Remove any obstructions.
Inaccurate weight readings.
Verify the scales are on a perfectly flat and stable surface. Adjust the feet to ensure maximum stability. Avoid any vibrations or movement during weighing. Ensure the tare function has been used correctly if weighing in a container.
Display is dim or unreadable.
Ensure the backlight is activated. If using batteries, they may be low and need replacing, which can affect screen brightness. If using mains power, ensure the connection is stable.
