2.2 Selecting the Location
The balance should always be used in an environment which is free from excessive air currents, corrosives, vibration,
and temperature or humidity extremes. These factors will affect displayed weight readings.
2.3 Setting Up and Leveling the Balance
Exact horizontal positioning and stable installation are prerequisites for repeatable results. To compensate small
irregularites or inclinations at the location, the instrument can be leveled.
For exact horizontal positioning, the balance is equipped
with a level indicator located at the front on the control
panel and two leveling feet located at the rear of the
balance.
Position the balance in the intended operating location.
Adjust the leveling feet at the rear of the balance until the
air bubble in the indicator is centered.
NOTE: The instrument should be leveled each time its
location is changed.
