b) For optimum accuracy, aim for 4-1/2 to 5 turns by packing the
bags accordingly.
8. Once the correct pressure has been reached, wait 20 to 25 sec-
onds. During this waiting period, press the "BATTERY" button to
confirm that the battery voltage is within the working limits. The
digital display must read more than 75.0 (7.5 volts) or the battery
should be replaced.
9. Press "SAMPLE" button and record the log reading from the digital
display.
10. Unwind the pressure knob and remove the sample bag. Check the
temperature of the sample inside the bag using the tester's ther-
mometer.
11. Refer to the temperature correction table on the log chart for the
material being tested. Apply the temperature correction factor to the
log reading according to the chart.
IMPORTANT: APPLY TEMPERATURE CORRECTION TO
LOG READING BEFORE LOOKING UP MOISTURE OR DRY
MATTER %.
12. Refer to the proper log chart of the material under test. Read Mois-
ture or Dry Matter content where the CORRECTED log reading and
number of turns intersect.
a) EXAMPLE: When testing fresh green chopped alfalfa, the
"Green Chopped Alfalfa Chart" should be used. If the sample log
reading is 57.4, and the sample temperature is 81˚F (27˚C), first
adjust the log reading for temperature by –3.5. (the temperature
is halfway between a correction of –2 and –5). The corrected log
reading is 57.4 – 3.5 = 53.9. If the number of turns is just under
5, then the moisture content of the sample is about 54.5%.
b) As a helpful guide, all silage log charts for fresh, chopped for-
age are presented as % MOISTURE. Charts for ensiled silage
are presented as % DRY MATTER.
