This is a wood moisture meter
This manual provides step-by-step instructions for operating the R6015 wood moisture meter, including how to take measurements with or without a temperature probe, auto power-off settings, and calibration checks. It also includes a calibration table for 150 wood species and care instructions for maintaining the device.
The meter uses electrical resistance to measure moisture content from 6% to 99.9% MC with ±1% accuracy. It features automatic temperature compensation, 8 wood calibration scales, and a built-in 2-point calibration check.

Use the two calibrators in the cap, select scale A, disconnect the temperature probe, and touch the needle to the poles. If calibrated correctly, the meter should register %H,O values between 17.7–18.3 or 25.5–26.5.
The meter measures moisture content from 6% to 99.9% MC with ±1% accuracy.
Yes, but measurements need manual correction: subtract 0.5% MC per 5°C above 20°C, or add 0.5% MC per 5°C below 20°C.
