I. Notes
1.) Please do not get the balance wet. If the balance gets wet,
please wipe it with a dry cloth. If water damage occurs, this will
void your warranty.
2.) Do not drop or shock the balance. Do not drop any item(s)
onto the weighing tray. This may cause permanent damage.
Operate the balance gently and gently place items onto the
weighing tray. Overloading the balance will cause damage to
the weighing sensor and is not covered by warranty.
3.) Extreme temperatures (hot and cold), humidity, shocks
and vibrations should be avoided at all times.
4.) If the balance will not be used for a long time, please
remove or unplug the power source. Clean the balance and store
in a non-static polybag. A desiccant is suggested to be included.
5.) Matter charged with static electricity can affect accuracy.
Discharge all static electricity. For example, onemethod is to use
Static-Guard spray. Please spray on both sides of the weighing
platform or any of our anti-static products.
II. General Information
i. Overview
This balance is very accurate balance, which is designed to
meet the needs of laboratories, industry and commercial users.
This balance has a very clear and big display which greatly
reduces the chances of mistakes. The high-speed processor
1

processes the weight very quickly and will provide you with a
very speedy weighing experience. The glass windshield
protects against wind (PMW only). The integrated RS232
enables you to auto send the weighing data to PC or other
equipment if you have the required software.
In order to provide a quick and easy weighing experience,
the following functions are included.
1. Kinds of different international weighing units: g, ct, oz,
ozt, dwt, gn, lb, kg, t, tola, gsm, TAR, TMR, tlt, tlh, etc.
2. Wide range of function: weighing, parts counting, check
weighing, animal weighing, percent weighing, accumulating
function, etc.
3. Large LCD display with backlight.

III. Instructions for Use
i. Precautions Before use
1.) The balance must be used on a stable, flat, and vibration
free surface in order to achieve accurate measurements.
2.) Please use an independent power outlet to avoid
interference by other electronic appliances.
3.) In order to bring the balance into a horizontal position,
the adjustable feet can be turned either clockwise or counter-
clockwise untiltheairbubble isin the centerof themarked circle.
4.) Do not put any object on the balance before powering
on.
5.) When possible, please allow the balance to warm up for
about 30-60 minutes before operations.
6.) Items should always be placed on the center of the
platform when being weighed. Always press TARE before each
weighment to ensure accuracy.
7.) For maximum accuracy, please re-calibrate before each
use.
ii. Storage and shipping condition
Allowable storage humidity: 50%~75%RH
temperature: 10*~30* ( fluctuations*1*/h )
After unpacking the balance, please check it immediately for
any visible damages as a result of rough handling during shipment
iii. Getting Started
1) Please check whether the components listed below on
the balance are in good condition:
4

* Glass windshield (PMW only)
* Weighing pan
* AC adapter
* Calibration weight
2) Installation instructions
* Place the weighing pan on the balance.
* Leveling the balance using the leveling feet so that the air
bubble is centered within the circle of the level indicator.
* Plug the cord on theAC adapter into theAC jack; then plug
the AC adaptor into a wall outlet. Please make sure that the
voltage rating printed on the balance isidentical to your local line
voltage.
IV.Calibration
For maximum accuracy, calibration is required before use.
Indicators your scale may need to be calibrated:
* Firstly use this balance.
* Weighing for a long time (about after 30 days).
* The ambient condition changed.
* The temperature changed strongly.
Instructions for extramural calibration
1.) First remove all objects from weighing tray
2.) Press CAL until the scale show "CAL", calibration will
begin.
3.) The scale will show the required weight for calibration.
5

Place the required weight as indicated on the screen on the center
4.) Once the required weight is placed on the scale it will
show lines across the screen -------,Then it will show the required
weight once more.
5.) Then remove the weight and the screen will show ------
then set back to zero. Calibration is complete.
Note: Please make sure you are using the proper weighing
mode when calibrating.
Instruction for Linear calibration (Do not attempt this
operation unless you have a full set of test weights, not just
the supplied calibration weights). Note! Errors in linearity
calibration are NOT covered by warranty.
Please only enter Linear calibration when the precision is
different on different weights.
for example: 3200g/0.01g
1.) First remove all objects from weighing tray.
2.) Press CAL until the Zero balance shows
"CAL".
3.) Then press MODE until the balance shows "CAL" once
more. Intramural calibration will begin.
4.) The balance will show "3000.00g". Place 3000g of
weight on the center of the weighing pan. Then the balance will
show lines across the screen -------, wait until it shows
"3000.00g"once more. Then remove the weight and the screen
will show ------.
5.) The scale will show "2000.00g". Place 2000g weight on
the center of the weighing pan. Then the balance will show
lines across the screen -------, wait until it shows "2000.00g"
again.Then remove the weight and the screen will show------.

Then set back to zero. Calibration is complete.
