1.1 Safety and warnings
1.1.1 Safe Installation
The mains lead must be connected to a supply outlet with a protective
earth contact. The electrical supply at the socket outlet must provide
over-current protection of an appropriate rating.
Pluggable equipment must be installed near an easily accessible
socket outlet. Permanently connected equipment must have a readily
accessible disconnect device incorporated in the fixed wiring.
To avoid the risk of the machine falling, where applicable, ensure that it
is placed securely on a flat and level surface.
USA
If the scale is connected to a 240V supply, the receptacle must be
protected by a 15amp circuit breaker.
1.1.2 Safe use
To avoid the possibility of electric shock or damage to the machine,
always switch off the machine and isolate from the power supply before
carrying out any routine maintenance.
1.1.3 Cleaning the machine
CAUTION:
Harsh abrasives, solvents, scouring cleaners and alkaline
cleaning solutions, such as washing soda, should not be used especially
on the display windows. Under no circumstances should you attempt to
wipe the inside of the machine.
The outside of standard products may be wiped down with a clean cloth
moistened with water containing a small amount of washing up liquid.
1.1.4 Safety
To avoid the possibility of electric shock or damage to the machine,
always switch off the machine and isolate from the power supply before
carrying out any routine maintenance.
Training
Do not attempt to operate or carry out any procedure on a machine or
network unless you have received the appropriate training or read the
instructions books provided.
Ergonomics
To avoid the risk of RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury) it is important to
ensure that the machine is placed on a surface that is ergonomically
satisfactory to the user. It is recommended that frequent breaks are
taken during prolonged usage.
