5.3 Installation site, location of use of the weighing system
The weighing system is designed to achieve reliable weighing results under normal
conditions of use.
You will work accurately and fast, if you select the right location for your weighing
system.
Therefore, observe the following for the installation site:
 The lo ad must be lifted clear of the display unit’s case and other pallets.
Incorrect lifting of a load Correct lifting of a load
 The accuracy of the weighing system is falling by approximately 0.1 % per
degree if there is a slant of more than 2°. Holes and unevenness, too, have
this effect. A smooth floor is ideal.
 Optimum accuracy in weighing results is achieved if the load centre is
between the forks. The forks are easily bent and twisted when the load is off-
centre. This may result in diminished accuracy.
In verifiable models off-centre loads, or slants affecting accuracy, activate the
inclination switch which in turn disconnects the display.
