CHAPTER 4 MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES
4.1 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE
Ohaus Scout balances are precision instruments and should be handled as follows:
•
Store in a clean dry area which is dust free. Use a cover if possible.
•
Keep clean at all times.
•
Do not leave a mass or any type of weight on the balance Pan when the balance
is not in use.
•
Remove the battery if the balance is not to be used for a long period of time.
•
Do not operate balance in an area with air drafts or vibration.
All Ohaus balances are constructed of durable materials. However, it is recommended
that when a balance has had chemicals or liquids spilled on it, the balance should be
cleaned as soon as possible. Use warm water on a damp cloth to clean all exterior
surfaces. When moving the balance from a storage area which is at a different
temperature than the area where the balance is to be operated, allow sufficient time for
the balance mechanism to temperature stabilize. This time can vary depending upon
the temperature differences. Also, after turning the balance ON, allow 5 minutes after
temperature stabilization for the balance electronics to stabilize.

4.1.1 Preventive Maintenance Checklist
Every six months, the balance should be inspected and checked as follows:
1. Remove power from the balance, then remove the Pan (6).
2. Remove the Platform Retaining Screw (22) (see Figure 4-2). Remove the
Platform (5) and inspect and clean the area beneath the Platform (5).
