8. Carefully position the Silicon Carbide weighing platform onto the top of the ceramic

tubes.

9. Connect the DC power lead and RS-232 plug at the rear of the balance.

10. Before turning on the power supply, connect the earth cable to the earthing bolt on

the support plate.

Important Note:

The balance will not stabilise if the ceramic tubes touch the sides

of the holes in the hearth.
