1 Introduction
The KERN balance table was designed for laboratories and metrology rooms in order
to create suitable working conditions for devices that react sensitively to vibrations and
shocks.
The table comprises two different components:
•An integrated work space with shock-absorbing rubber blocks attached to a
stone slab
•An external work table with aluminium profile frame and height-adjustable feet

2. Remove the two granite supporting rails (long), the 2 granite supporting rails
(short) and the accessory bag from the lower packing layer.
3. Screw these parts together with the 4x M8x40 screws using the hexagon
wrench key from the bag in a way the resulting frame is plane and flat. (See
fig. 2)

4. Remove the inner side rail (lefthand) from the upper packing layer and the
inner side rail (righthand) from the middle packing layer and fix them with the
M8x40 screws using the hexagon wrench. (See fig. 3)
5. Remove the lower granite supporting rail from the upper packing layer and fix
it by the two M8x40 screws; for this purpose open the two side frames slightly
in order to insert the rails into the frames. After that tighten the 6 screws as
shown in fig. 3.
After that the two sides should be aligned in a parallel and straight manner.
6. Fix the four rubber blocks as shown in fig. 4.
7. Put upon the granite block and center it as exactly as possible. Fig. 5 and 6
show the completely assembled inner table.

Take care that the screws are fitted in such a way that they are sunk in
the recesses.
(Do not allow screws to protrude - risk of injuries!)

3.2 Outer frame assembly
1. Remove the outer side rail (right) from the lower packing, the table top
assembly from the middle packing and the outer side rail (left) from the top
packing (see Figure 7).
2. Fix them using four M8×40 screws with the hex key provided.
3. Remove the outer table supporting rail (upper front) from the lower packing
and fix it with four M8 x 40 screws.
4. Remove the outer table supporting rail (lower) from the top packing and fix it
with two M8 x 40 screws. You can open the 2 side frames a little in order to
put the rails inside the frames and then
5. tighten the 10 screws as Figure 8 shows.
6. Make sure the 2 sides are all parallel after the screws are tight. You can see
the assembled view in Figure 9
