GF-1200/2000/3000/4000/6100/6000/8000

Note

Please confirm that the AC adapter type is correct
for your local voltage and receptacle type.

2-2 Installing the Balance

Install the balance as follows:

1. Refer to “3. PRECAUTIONS” for installing the balance. Place the balance on a solid weighing

table.

2. GF-200/300/400/600/800/1000
Assemble the breeze break on the balance as shown in the illustration on page 6.

GF-1200/2000/3000/4000/6100/6000/8000
Assemble the breeze ring and weighing pan on the balance as shown in the illustration above.

3. Adjust the leveling feet to level the balance. Confirm it using the bubble spirit level.

4. Confirm that the adapter type is correct for the local voltage and power receptacle type.

5. Connect the AC adapter to the balance. Warm up the balance for at least 30 minutes with

nothing on the weighing pan.
