5.2.2 Leveling with a Conventional Level Indicator (Quintix
®
)
The
Quintix
®
models are fitted with a conventional level indicator.
This is located to the left of the display. The position of the air bubble in the indicator
shows whether or not the balance is correctly leveled.
t
Twist both of the front leveling feet of the balance to move the air bubble so that
it is centered in the circular marking.
The figure shows which leveling foot should be twisted in which direction. Generally,
both feet must be adjusted in order to position the air bubble exactly in the center of
the circular marking.
Examples:
–
If the air bubble is too far to the lower right, twist the right leveling foot
counterclockwise (see figure).
–
If the air bubble is too far to the upper right, twist the left leveling foot
clockwise.
–
If the air bubble is too far to the left, twist the left leveling foot counterclockwise
and the right leveling foot clockwise.
t
Check the level indicator after each adjustment and correct if necessary.
t
Complete the leveling by calibrating the balance.
