Tronix distributor.
Unpacking and Setup
Unpack your 3700 scale and inspect it for shipping damage. Report any
damage to your shipping company immediately and save all packing materi-
als.
Place the unit on a stable, level surface. Look at the bubble level under the
stainless steel shroud as you adjust the threaded feet to level the scale.
Tighten the jam nuts up against the scale base once the scale is level.
Plug the display cable into the proper connector on the back of the scale.
Plug the power cord into the proper connector on the back of the scale.
If your unit is battery powered, charge the battery for 6 hours and disconnect
from the charger before using the scale. Battery life depends on usage of
the backlight and other factors.
The 10” x 10” scales do not have the battery option.
If you have a printer or other peripheral device, plug it into the proper
connector on the back of the scale.
Only plug this unit into a
properly grounded, easily
accessible outlet of the
proper voltage. Injury or
damage to the unit may
occur if the unit is not
properly grounded.
