5.2 Leveling
The balance must be level to ensure precise weighing results. Leveling the balance 
compensates for slant or unevenness at the place of installation by twisting the front 
leveling feet of the balance.
The balance needs to be re-leveled and adjusted each time its setup location is 
changed.
The leveling function is different for the various balance models:
–  Electronic level indicator (Secura
®
 only)
– Conventional level indicator (Quintix
®
 and Practum
®
)
 
Note: The balance needs to be re-leveled and then adjusted each time its location is 
changed.
