Leveling the Weighing Platform (Verified Models Only)
Purpose:
– To compensate for uneven areas at the place of installation
– To ensure that the equipment is placed in a perfectly horizontal position
for consistently reproducible weighing results
Always level the weighing platform again any time after it has been moved
to a different location.
§ Level the weighing platform using the four leveling feet.
Turn the feet until the air bubble is centered in the level indicator.
§ Check to ensure that all leveling feet rest securely on the work surface.
> Each of the leveling feet must support an equal load.
§ Loosen the locknuts on the leveling feet using an open-end wrench (spanner).
> Adjusting the leveling feet:
To raise the weighing platform, extend the leveling feet (turn counterclockwise).
To lower the weighing platform, retract the leveling feet (turn clockwise).
§ After leveling the weighing platform, tighten the lock nuts as follows:
Small platforms (1 load cell): tighten the locknuts against the platform frame
Large platforms (4 load cells): tighten the locknuts against the platform foot
Operating Limits
Never exceed the maximum capacity of the weighing platform.
