7. Usage general rules
1. After switching-on the power, the scale proceeds with self-tests and zeroing the scale. During start-up the
scale should not be loaded (does not apply to tank scales, where scales are not zeroed after start-up).
2. Before each measurement make sure that zero indicator is displayed. If zero indicator does not displayed or “--
--“ communicate appears, press 0 key and wait until zero indication and zero indicator appears.
3. The scale is equipped with a tare equal to its range. To tare the scale press T key. Storing a tare value
does not extend measuring range, but only subtracts it from a load placed on a pan. If the scale is not loaded
T key does not operate – to zero the scale press 0 key.
4. Weighing result should be read when the indicator " " lights, which signalises stabilisation of a result.
5. Weighed sample should be placed in the centre of the platform.
Do not drop weighed objects on the platform!
Do not overload the scale more then 20% of maximum load
(Max).
6. Protect the scale against dust, aggressive dusts and liquids. To clean it is advised to wash the scale with water
and dry it afterwards.
