Choose the Proper Environment:
The environment in which your balance is used is very important. Air movement, temperature changes, vibrations, direct sunlight,
etc. influences the performance of high precision balances. Therefore, place your balance on a solid, sturdy surface that is free of air
currents and vibration and not in direct sunlight. The surface should not be magnetic and should be located away from doors,
windows, heaters, air conditioners and fans.
Level the Balance:
Turn the FRONT FEET as shown in Figure 2 to level the balance by centering the bubble in the LEVEL INDICATOR which is shown
in Figure 1. Turning the foot, as shown below, raises that side of the balance and an opposite adjustment lowers it. When properly
adjusted the metal center shaft of the assembly will protrude from the center of the plastic foot and will contact the working surface to
support the balance. The plastic foot will be raised up against the bottom of the balance and will not be touching the weighing table.

Unlock the Clamping Screw:
All balances are equipped with a special clamping screw that locks the balance suspension during shipping. This screw must be
loosened before the balance can be operated (see Figure 3).
1. Locate the black knob, on the front center of the balance, underneath the display area.
2. Remove the paper tag.
3. Turn the knob, in the direction shown below, until finger tight.
If the balance is ever shipped or moved long distances, the clamping screw should be retightened by turning the knob in the
opposite direction until finger tight.
