Installation Requirements

Maximum performance is guaranteed only when installation of the scale system is

performed by a qualified scale technician. For best performance, the AC mains supplying

the scale system must be an isolated circuit free from other loads and not in close

proximity to inductive or SCR controls.

WARNING: THIS SCALE MUST BE OPERATED FROM AN AC POWER SOURCE

THAT PROVIDES AN EARTH GROUND FOR THE SCALE CHASSIS TO ENSURE

SAFE OPERATION AND PROPER PERFORMANCE. THE POWER CORD IS THE

POWER DISCONNECT DEVICE. CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN NOT TO BLOCK

ACCESS TO THE OUTLET IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY.

Unpacking and Inspection

Remove the weightmeter display from its shipping container. Discard the protective

materials. Do not plug the meter into an AC voltage source until completing the

inspection of the instrument. With a proper screw driver, loosen the screws holding the

lid clasps in place. Open the lid and visually inspect to make sure there are not signs of

shipping damage such as broken wires, loose components, or fractured printed circuit

boards. This visual inspection is necessary if a shipping claim needs to be processed.

Every care has been taken to minimize potential damage that could occur if rough

handling is experienced in transit.
