5.0 PREPARATION
5.1 SETTING UP THE BALANCE
CAUTION
Avoid installing the balance in direct sunlight that may cause poor
performance or malfunctions.
Place the balance on a firm weighing table so that the balance is
levelled. The balance will not perform accurately when it is not
levelled.
Level by adjusting the feet to centre the bubble in the spirit level.
Remove the shipping protection screw and round cover as shown
below using the Allen key supplied in the box. (It is advisable to keep
the shipping protection screw and the round cover along with the
packing box for using during shipping to another location in future).

Place the platform (comes separately packed) in the receptacles on
the top cover. Place the stainless steel pan. (See the diagram on
page 5).
Do not press with excessive force as it could damage the load cell
inside.
Place the balance on a firm and flat surface for accurate weighing.
5.2 INSTALLING BATTERIES AND POWER
Remove the battery compartment cover and insert six batteries (R6P/LR6
/AA size) into the battery compartment. Take extreme care in placing the
positive and negative polarities correctly.
Alternately, plug in the AC adapter into the socket at the rear of the
balance. The AC input requirement could be 100, 120, 220, 230 or 240
Volts (50/60Hz) depending on the location where it is used. Verify the
adapter is correct.
