1.1 INTRODUCTION  

Dear Customer, 
 
We thank you for choosing a Dini Argeo product and we invite you to carefully read this manual before carrying out any 
operation on the instrument that you have purchased. 
It is of utmost importance that the main checks and maintenance or repair interventions be recorded in the appropriate 
section of the booklet.  
Therefore we kindly ask you to carefully keep this booklet and present it to the manufacturer Dini Argeo or to the 
authorised reseller each time that it is necessary to carry out maintenance, repair, or replace spare parts / accessories on 
the instrument.  

 

NOTE: 

This manual is an integral part of the instrument and if sold, it must be given to the new owner. 

 

1.1.1 Designation of the machine and manufacturer data 

The “MCW/MCWK” instrument is an electronic weighing device, to be considered as a lifting accessory, suitable for use 
on overhead cranes, or on similar lifting devices. 
It is composed by a tension load cell, an electronic device to measure and indicate the weight, a shackle connecting  the 
hook  of  the  lifting  means  and  the  load  cell,  and  an  eye  hook  for  the  connection  between  swivel  hook  and  load  lifting 
devices. 
Normally the remote command of the measuring instrument takes place through an infrared ray system. 
It is possible also to use radio devices both for the remote commands as well as for the data transmission (RF). 
With  a  regard  to  the  load  cell  and  its  components  sizes,  the  equipment  can  have  different  maximum  capacities;  in 
kilograms there are: 150, 300, 600, 1500, 3000, 6000, 6500, 8000. 
The instrument can be suitable for use with third parties (M) or for internal use. 
The complete identification will then be: 
MCW + (150 or 300 or 600 o 1500 or 3000 or T6) + (M – only if for use with third) or MCW + (150 or 300 or 600 or 1500 or 
3000 or T6) if the instrument would be suitable at an internal usage.  
MCWK6 (3000 kg or 6000 kg) + (M – only if for use with third) or MCWK6 if the instrument would be suitable at an internal 
usage. 
MCWK8 (6000 kg or 8000 kg) + (M – only if for use with third) or MCWK8 if the instrument would be suitable at an internal 
usage.For more information see paragraph “MARKINGS”. 
This manual takes into consideration the various types.
