VII.  Calibration

Calibration and adjustment are performed at the factory. 

However, the weighing range can shift slightly during 

shipping. Also, due to changes in local acceleration of gravity 

around the world, adjustment is recommended when moving 

the scale from one location to another. To check calibration:

1.  Place the required calibration weight on the scale 

and note the displayed value.

2.  If the displayed value is not within acceptable 

tolerance (see chart below), adjustment is required.
