Adventurer ™ Balances Service Manual
The sequence of loading the test weights on the platform is very important to insure a correct
linearity calibration. Refer to the diagram below for the correct weight sequence. Load each
numbered weight (or group of weights if required) in the order indicated (No.1, No.2, No.3, No.4)
then remove in the correct order (No.1, No.4, No.2, No.3). This is done to reduce the affect of the
individual weight inaccuracies on the linearity calibration.
Follow the sequence and weights show on the balance display to load and unload weights during
this 5 Point Linearity Calibration.
NOTE:
If calibration fails, ensure that the test area is free from drafts and the surface the balance
rests on is level and free of vibrations. Then try to calibrate again. If it continues to fail, there may
be an internal problem. To resolve internal problems, follow procedures in Chapter 3.

Internal weight
calibration in the Service Menu is used to determine the balance’s internal weight.
This establishes a ratio between the internal weight and an external calibration weight.
