6 Maintenance and service

The weighing machine must be treated carefully and cleaned
regularly. It is a precision instrument.

For maintenance-work, the weighing machine must be
separated from the power supply (remove power adapter plug
from the socket). Also ensure that the machine cannot be
reconnected to the power supply during the work by a third
party.

Take care during cleaning that no liquid penetrates into the
weighing machine. If liquid is spilled on the machine, the latter
must immediately be disconnected from the electricity supply.
The machine may only be used again after it has first been
checked by a service engineer.

The connections on the rear of the appliance and the power
adapter must not come into contact with liquids.

Regularly remove the weighing platter and remove any dirt or
dust from under the platter and on the weighing machine
housing with a soft brush or a soft, lint-free cloth, moistened
with a mild soap solution. The platter can be cleaned under
running water.

Take care that the platter is completely dry before it is re-
installed on the weighing machine.

Never use solvents, acids, alkalis, paint thinners, scouring
powders or other aggressive or corrosive chemicals for
cleaning, since these substances attack the surfaces of the
scale housing and may cause damage.

7 Transport, storage

7.1 Transportation and shipping


Your weighing machine is a precision instrument. Treat it
carefully. Avoid shaking, severe impacts and vibration during
the transportation.

Take care that there are no marked temperature fluctuations
during the transportation and that the weighing machine does
not become damp (condensation).

7.2 Storage


If you would like to take the weighing machine out of service
for an extended period, disconnect it from the electricity
supply, clean it thoroughly (see Section 6.Maintenance and
servicing.) and store it in a place which meets the following
conditions:

No violent shaking, no vibrations

Minimum temperature fluctuations

No direct solar radiation

Minimum moisture

The weighing machine should preferably be dispatched,
transported and stored in the original packaging to avoid any
damage.

This provides optimal protection for the weighing

machine.
