Cleaning

$

Unplug the scale from the AC power before cleaning. 

$

To clean the weighing platform: use a piece of cloth, 
wet with a commercially available cleaning agent 
(IPA – Isopropyl Alcohol) to wipe it down. Follow the 
manufacturer’s instructions for the cleaning agent.

!

Never use concentrated acids, bases, sol-
vents or pure alcohol to clean the weighing
platform.

!

Do not use high-pressure cleaning equip-
ment to clean the weighing platform.

$

If the scale is installed in a pit, make sure that no
debris builds up in the crevices between the pit and 
the platform, to prevent weighing errors. 

$

Regularly remove debris from the bottom of the pit.

Cleaning the Inside of the Platform

$

To clean the inside of the weighing platform, remove
the load plate (applicable for single load cell platforms).

!

Please follow the safety instructions.

$

Use compressed air to blow debris out of
the inside of the scale. Make sure that no
debris builds up in the gap between the
load receptor and the fastening plate, to
avoid compromising the overload protection.

Corrosive Environment

$

Remove all traces of corrosive substances from the
weighing platform on a regular basis.

Safety Inspection

If there is any indication that safe operation of the
scale with the AC is no longer warranted: 

$

Turn off the power and disconnect the equipment from
AC power immediately

$

Lock the equipment in a secure place to ensure that it
cannot be used for the time being 

Safe operation of the scale with the AC is no longer
ensured when: 

There is visible damage to the AC adapter 

The AC adapter no longer functions properly 

The AC adapter has been stored for a relatively long
period under unfavorable conditions 

In this case, notify your nearest service center or 
the International Technical Support. Maintenance 
and repair work may only be performed by service
technicians who 

Have access to the required maintenance manuals

Have attended the relevant service training courses

Instructions for Recycling the Packaging

To ensure safe shipment, your scale has been pack-
aged using environmentally friendly materials. After
successful installation of the scale, you should return
this packaging for recycling. For information on 
recycling options, including recycling of old weighing
equipment, contact your municipal waste disposal 
center or local recycling depot.
