2.2. SAFETY
As is in the case with any material handling equipment, certain safety precautions
must be observed during operation.
 Never load the scale platform beyond its rated capacity.
─ Refer to the rating on the serial number plate to be certain.
 Ensure that any structure which supports the platform is capable
of withstanding the weight of the platform plus its rated capacity
load.
 Do not load the scale platform if there is any evidence of damage
to the platform or supporting structure.
 Use safety chains or other suitable restraining devices if there is
any possibility of the load shifting, falling, or rolling from its
position on the load receiver.
