§
Choose a suitable place to set up the weighing platform. This place should have a dry,
horizontal and even surface. The operating temperature range only for the platform is
between –10°C and +40°C (–14°F and +104°F). The allowable structural load-carrying
capacity of a floor or surface must be sufficient to support both the weight of the
weighing platform and its maximum weighing capacity.
If you need to use the weighing platform in areas exposed to heavy traffic (e.g., fork-lift
trucks), you should install a protective frame, consisting of angular braces, around the
weighing platform.
Do not expose the weighing platform unnecessarily to aggressive chemical vapors or to
extreme temperatures, moisture, shock, or vibration, which could result in damage.
§
The air bubble must be centered within the circle on the level indicator.
§
Level the weighing platform using the leveling feet as described below.
§
Check to ensure that all leveling feet rest securely on the work surface.
> Each of the leveling feet must support an equal load!
§
Loosen the locknuts on the leveling feet using a 1/2-inch open-end wrench.
> Adjusting the leveling feet:
To raise the weighing platform, extend the leveling feet (turn clockwise).
To lower the weighing platform, retract the leveling feet (turn counterclockwise).
§
After leveling the weighing platform, retighten the locknuts securely as described below:
Low-capacity platforms (1 load cell): tighten the locknuts against the platform frame;
high-capacity platforms (4 load cells): tighten the locknuts against the platform feet.
§
If the weighing platform is in a hazardous location, it must be grounded (i.e., an
equipotential bonding conductor must be connected). This connection should be made
by a trained technician.
All Combics weighing platforms are equipped with a connector for the grounding conductor.
This is located either below the load pan, on the junction box, or on the lower frame
of the weighing platform. The position is marked in each case by the symbol shown here,
indicating the grounding connection.
The grounding conductor is connected to a threaded bolt or terminal screw, or a drill hole
is provided. If a drill hole is provided, use a stainless steel screw and nut to connect the
grounding conductor. Use of a tooth lock washer is recommended, to prevent the screw
from coming loose. The wire used for the grounding conductor should have a gauge or
cross-sectional diameter of at least 4 mm
2
(0.006 in
2
), with a suitable ring lug attached.
Connect all equipment, including peripheral devices, to the equipotential bonding
conductor.
