OPERATION
For setup, calibration and proper operation, refer to the instruction manual supplied with the indicator. Refer to the
specifications section of the Drum Scale for capacity and readability information.
For continued best operating performance:
Avoid falling loads, shocks and hard lateral impacts
When weighing, all items should be centrally located on the Drum Scale and not
over hanging the sides or the ramps.
Verify the calibration of the Drum Scale system at regular intervals.
Operating Limits
