Section 3: Installation
3.1. PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKOUT
1. Check that all components and accessories are on hand, and agree with the your
order.
2. Remove all components from their packing material, checking to make certain that
all parts are accounted for and no parts are damaged. Advise the shipper
immediately, if damage has occurred. Order any parts necessary to replace those
which have been damaged. Keep the shipping container and packing material for
future use. Check the packing list.
3. Collect all necessary installation manuals or CD’s for the instrument and
accessories.
3.2. EQUIPMENT LOCATION
The Instrument should be positioned away from direct sunlight. Keep the scale
platform away from air drafts as this will effect the accuracy of the count and weight.
3.3. SAFETY
As is the case with any material handling equipment, certain safety precautions
should be observed during operation:
1. Never load the platform beyond its rated capacity. Refer to the rating on the
serial number plate if in doubt.
2. Ensure that any structure which supports the platform is capable of withstanding
the weight of the platform plus its rated capacity load.
3. Do not load the platform if there is any evidence of damage to the platform.
