y Position the ACX1281 on all four wheels on a flat, vibration-
proof surface so that proper operation of the scales is guar-
anteed.
y
The ACX1281 can be secured in position by locking the caster
brake.
y The ACX1281 must always be transported in its operating
position. Never lay the ACX1281 on its side, as oil could then
escape from the vacuum pump or the built in compressor
could be damaged.
