1.3.Maintenance

Themaintenanceguidelinesfornormalpallettrucksapplytothechassisofthemobileweighing
system.Fromexperienceweknowthattheintegratedweighingsystemstillfunctionswhenthe
chassisisdamagedbyoverloading.

Mainguidelines:
‐ Becausethesteeringwheelsaremountedinthefront,pullingofthepallettruckispreferred
abovepushingit.
‐ Whentheliftingmechanismisnotused,thehandleshouldbekeptintheneutral,middle,
position.Thisprolongsthelifespanofthesealings.
‐ TheweighingsystemmeetsuptotheprotectionclassIP65.Thismeansthatdustormoisture
(rainorwaterbeamfromallsides),willnotinfluencetheoperationoftheelectronics.
However,high‐pressurecleansingincombinationwithwarmwaterorchemicalcleanserswill
leadtotheentryofmoistureandthereforenegativelyinfluencetheoperationofthesystem.
Incaseofastainlesssteelchassisyoushouldneveruseadetergentthatcontainschloride,
otherwiseyouwillgetbrownspotsonthechassis.
‐ Onlyspecialistsmayundertakeanywelding.Thisistoavoiddamagetoelectronicsandload
cells.
‐ Thebearingsofthewheels(non‐polyurethane)andthepivotingpointsofthelevellingbarof
theloadingwheelsmustbecleansedandgreasedregularly.

1.4.MobileWeighingsystem

Amobileweighingsystemisamobilescale.Thismeansthattheownershouldconsiderthesame
maintenanceasapplicablewithstandardstationaryscales.

Ayearlyinspection,byanauthorizedserviceprovider,isrecommended.Andincasethescaleis
stamped‘legalfortrade’thentheweighingsystemshouldbe
re‐stampedinaccordancewiththe
metrologicalregulationsinthecountryofuse.

WhenyourcompanyisISOcertificated,itisverylikelythatallmeasuringdevicesshouldbe
checkedmoreregularlythanonceayear(i.e.½yearor¼year).Foraneasyoverviewyoucanfill

Basedontheserecommendationsweareconvincedthatyourmobileweighingsystemwillwork
accuratelyandreliablyforaverylongtime.
