LIFTInG GuIde
• Important - if you cannot comfortably
lift your luggage do
not attempt to weigh it.
• Stand with luggage to your side.
• Hold scale with one hand only.
• Keeping back straight, bend knees
then lift.
• Look ahead, not at the display,
while lifting. The scale will beep to
alert you once the weight reading has
been taken.
• Avoid twisting the back or leaning sideways.
Keep shoulders level and facing same direction as hips
keeping back upright at all times.
• Keep luggage close to the body but not touching.
• Luggage only needs to be just clear of floor to take reading.
• Lift smoothly.
• When measurement is complete, lower the luggage in the reverse manner you
lifted. (Figure 1 shows the correct lifting method)
