2) Environmental Protection: The scale should be installed in a dry and liquid free environment. When
the scale is installed in a high humidity or wet-type environment, be sure to avoid spilling or spraying
directly on any surface of the scale.
3) Personal Safety: It is extremely important to be aware of personal safety whenever maintaining or
operating this equipment. Wherever possible, we have tried to place warning labels and other
indicators at the actual location on the equipment where the danger is most likely to occur. However, it
is not always possible to foresee all dangerous situations. Warnings and cautions that are necessary for
the safe operation of the scale are contained in this manual. Please, make sure to carefully read ALL
warnings and cautions before operating the scale.
4) Observe the following safety precautions:
ƒ
Shut the scale OFF and unplug the scale whenever you are changing the label
roll or whenever working in the printer bay.
ƒ
The outlet that the scale is plugged in to should be properly grounded.
ƒ
Whenever connecting or disconnecting ANY cables from the scale, be sure to
hold the cables by the end connector. Failure to do so may cause a short circuit.
ƒ
Maintain a static free work area.
ƒ
Never use any other equipment on the same line: it should be a dedicated line.
ƒ
The outlet used must have the proper voltage ratings.
