General operation principles
1.
Weighed sample should be placed in the centre of the pan.
2.
In direct sale use (d=e), make sure that
0
zero indicator is displayed
before sample is placed on the pan. If not, press
0
key and wait until the
balance is zeroed and zero indicator appears. In other balances the key does
not operate.
3.
The balance allows taring in the whole measuring range. To tare the balance
press
T
key (on the left or on the right). Taring does not extend
measuring range, but only subtracts tare value from mass value of a sample
placed on the pan. To make the control of pan load easier and to avoid
crossing measurement range, the balance has a load indicator calibrated
0÷100% Max.
4.
Weighing result should be read when the indicator "
" lights, which
signalises stabilisation of a result.
5.
When the balance is not used but should be ready to work immediately, it
can be switched off by pressing
I
/
key. The backlight of balance reading
system is then switched off and the balance enters into "standby" mode, in
which the balance maintains internal temperature and ability to start working
with maximum accuracy. Standby mode is signalled by the
OFF
indicator.
To switch the balance on press
I
/
key.
6.
Balance mechanism is a precise device sensitive to mechanical shocks and
strokes.
Do not overload the balance more than 20% of maximum capacity.
Do not press the pan with a hand.
For transportation take off the pan and pan support (AG(Z)100-
AG(Z)600 balances) or nuts (AG(Z)1000-AG(Z)4000 and AGZ10
balances), on which the pan is placed.
7.
The balance cannot be used to weigh ferromagnetic materials due to
decrease of weighing accuracy.
8.
After every change of balance position, level the balance and perform
internal calibration.
