3 Getting started with your
weighing machine
3.1 Unpacking the equipment
The machine is delivered in an environmentally-friendly
carton, specifically developed for this precision instrument,
which provides optimum protection for the machine during
transportation.
We suggest that you retain the original packaging in order to
avoid transportation damage if re-shipping or transporting the
weighing machine, and to allow the machine to be stored in
the best conditions if it is out of operation for an extended
period of time.
In order to avoid damage, attention must be given to the
following points when unpacking the machine:

Unpack the weighing machine carefully. It is a
precision instrument.

When outside temperatures are very low, the weighing
machine should first be stored for some hours in the
unopened transport package in a dry room at normal
temperature, so that no condensation settles on the
machine when unpacking.

Check the weighing machine immediately after
unpacking for externally visible damage. If you should
find transport damage, please inform your service
representative immediately.

If the machine is not to be used immediately after
purchase but rather at a later time, it should be stored
in a dry place where fluctuations in temperature are as
small as possible (see Chapter 7 .Transport,
storage.).
