Unpacking Your Scale

Before unpacking your Doran scale, please read the instructions in this section.
Your new scale is a durable industrial product, but it is also a sensitive weighing
instrument. Normal care should be taken when handling and using this product.
Improper handling or abuse can damage the scale and result in costly repairs
that may not be covered by the warranty. If you notice any shipping damage,
notify the shipper immediately. Please observe the following precautions to
insure years of trouble free service from your new scale.

?

DO NOT drop the scale indicator or scale platform.

?

DO NOT immerse the scale indicator or platform.

?

DO NOT drop objects on the platform.

?

DO NOT pick up the scale platform by the "spider."

Carefully remove the scale from the shipping carton. Be sure to retain all
shipping materials in case the scale must be shipped elsewhere.

Setup and Installation

INSTALLATION:

Locate the desired position for the scale platform and indicator. The platform
location should be flat, level and free of any obstructions which might interfere
with the operation of the scale platform.

When installing your scale, make sure that an AC power outlet is close to the
scale and easily accessible.

Place the scale on a flat level surface free from any obstructions which might
interfere with the operation of the scale platform.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS:

Prior to connecting your scale to power, check the serial number tag on the
indicator for the correct operating voltage. Verify that the power you connect the
scale to matches the rated voltage.

Be sure the AC power is not excessively noisy - this can occur if large inductive
loads, such as solenoids or motors, are on the same power line. The Model
7000XL has a filtered power supply to reduce the effects of normal line noise, but
severe fluctuations may cause operation problems. If problems occur, noise
producing devices may have to be suppressed to minimize their effect.
