Transport and storage 
4.1 
Acceptance check 
Please check the packaging immediately upon delivery and the 
device during unpacking for any visible signs of external dam-
age.  
4.2 
Packaging 
Please retain all parts of the original packaging in case it 
should be necessary to return items at any time.  
Only the original packaging should be used for return consign-
ments.  Before despatch, disconnect all attached cables and 
loose/movable parts. Apply any intended transport security 
devices. Secure all parts, e.g. glass windshield, weighing plate, 
power unit etc., to prevent slipping and damage. 
Unpacking, installation and commissioning 
5.1 
Place of installation, place of use 
The balance is constructed in such a way that reliable weighing 
results can be achieved under normal application conditions.  
By selecting the correct application location  for  your balance, 
you will be able to work quickly and precisely.  
Therefore please observe the following at the
 
application 
location
•  Avoid extreme heat as well as temperature fluctuation 
caused by installing next to a radiator or in the direct 
sunlight;  
•  Protect the balance against direct draughts due to open 
windows and doors;  
•  Avoid jarring during weighing;  
•  Protect the balance against high humidity, vapours and 
dust;  
•  Do not expose the device to extreme dampness for longer 
periods of time. Inadmissible bedewing (condensation of air 
moisture on the device) can occur if a cold device is taken 
into a significantly warmer environment.  In this case, 
please acclimatise the device for approx. 2 hours at room 
temperature after it has been disconnected from the bat-
terys.  
•  Avoid static charging of the material to be weighed, weigh-
ing container and windshield.   
 
Major display deviations (incorrect weighing results) are possi-
ble if electromagnetic fields occur as well as due to static 
charging and instable power supply. It is then necessary to 
change the location.  
5.2 
Unpacking 
Carefully remove the balance from its packaging, remove the 
plastic wrapping and position the balance in its intended work-
ing location.

Battery operation and change 
Push off the battery cover on the back of the balance in the 
direction of the arrow. Insert 9 V battery. Replace the battery 
cover. When the batteries are exhausted the message "LO" 
appears in the balance display. Press the OFF switch and 
replace the batteries immediately. To preserve battery life the 
balance switches off automatically after 4 minutes if no weigh-
ing has taken place. Deactivate this Auto-OFF function in the 
menu as follows:#

Ö  In the display appears the current setting „ON“ or „OFF“ 
resp. „YES“ or „NO“.With help of the ON/OFF/TARE-key 
you can select between „ON“ or „OFF“ resp. „YES“ or 
„NO“. Confirm your selection with the HOLD-key. After a 
short period the balance returns automatically to weighing 
mode. 
 
Adjustment 
As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at 
every location on earth, each balance must be coordinated –  
in compliance with the underlying physical weighing principle - 
to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location 
( only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the loca-
tion in the factory).  This adjustment process must be carried 
out during the initial start-up, after change in location and varia-
tion of surrounding temperature. It is also recommendable to 
adjust the balance periodically during weighing operation in 
order to obtain exact measured values. 
6.1 
Adjusting 
Using a precision weight, the accuracy of the balance can be 
checked at any time and adjusted. 
Adjustment procedure: 
Check that the surrounding conditions are stable. A short 
warm-up time of about  1  minutes are recommended for stabi-
lisation.  
Press “UNIT” key approx. 3 seconds, ”CAL” and then the exact 
weight of the adjusting weight will appear at the display. 
Hang on the adjusting weight on the hook of the hanging scale. 
“ F” will appear a short time later, and then turn off. 
In case of an adjusting error or a wrong adjusting weight “ E” 
appears in the display.
