Presentation of the truck
The LEC 2000 SC is a hand pallet truck with an integrated scale.
Thanks to the highly precise scale, it is now possible to weigh
pallets and containers at the moment of transport. To prevent
errors and increase the efficiency of the logistics process, the
flow of materials can be verified by weighing goods.
The LEC 2000 SCQ is designed for users with a high pallet turn-
over. The forks reach the pallet surface already at the first stroke
of the handle and lift the pallet during the second stroke.
The truck has a maximum lifting capacity of 2000 kg/4500 lbs.
Intended application of the truck
The truck may be used only on a firm and even surface, such as
concrete or asphalt.
The truck is ideal for use in the following applications:
- To determine the exact weight of goods.
- To prevent overloading lorries.
- To verify the weight of delivered goods.
- To determine the price of goods based on its weight.

Scale
General
The LEC 2000 SC is a hand pallet truck with an integrated scale.
In ambient temperatures of -10 to +40°C, maximum deviation of
the weighed gods is 0.1%. Outside this temperature range, the
deviation may reach 0.3%.
To prevent water condensing in electronic components, avoid
sudden temperature variations. If the truck is exposed to
extreme temperature variations, switch off the electronics
beforehand and allow it to become acclimatised.
All components have been designed for mobile use, implying a
compact design and high resistance against impacts and vibra-
tion.
If inclined by more than 2°, the precision of the scale will be
reduced by approx. 0.1% for each additional degree. This effect
also occurs if the truck sits in a hole in the floor. Use the truck on
level, even ground.
Switching on the scale
• Depress the On/Off switch (1) to switch on the scale.
Wait three to five minutes until the scale electronics and the
load cells have reached working temperature. If used before
this, scale deviation will be around 0.3%.
• Prior to using the scale, make sure there is sufficient free
space around the truck and that it is unloaded.
The display features automatic zero adjustment, which
means that small deviations from the zero position are cor-
rected automatically.
If the display does not correct the zero position automatically,
then perform this procedure manually by pressing the Æ0/TÅ
button.
Application
The scale is powered by a replaceable battery module. With a
fully charged battery module, it is possible to perform weighing
non-stop for approx. 35 hours (system without printer).
When the charge level of the battery module becomes low, the
indication "LO-BA" is displayed. When the battery has been
completely drained, the display shuts off automatically.
It is recommended to charge the battery for at least 6 hours. This
will prevent deterioration of the battery capacity.
If the system is used in shift work and when expanded with a
built-in printer, it recommended to obtain a spare battery mod-
ule.

• Charge the battery module using the supplied charger.
The charger LED lights during battery charging. When the
LED goes out, the battery has been fully charged. Overcharg-
ing the battery is not possible since the charger switches off
automatically.
• Make sure the goods does not come into contact with the dis-
play housing or other pallets.
Weighing will be more precise when the goods is placed in the
centre of forks. If the load is placed off-centre, the forks can
bend and twist causing deviations in the weight result.

Display
There are three displey-modes.
The display may show the weight in kg’s, lb’s or it shows the
number of pieces. Also the battery sign is integrated in the dis-
play in order to show low battery status.
By means of nine pointer bars the display shows:

Display functions
Multi-range graduation
Since the possible scale error is smaller when the load is light,
lighter loads can be shown in smaller graduation steps on the
scale display. This means that the truck can manage different
weight graduations
The weight graduation step depends on the weight of the goods:
- from 0 to 200 kg, the weight is displayed in 0.2 kg steps
- from 200 to 500 kg, the weight is displayed in 0.5 kg steps
- from 500 to 2000 kg, the weight is displayed in 1 kg steps
Once a load has been weighed, the indication will recommence
from the smallest graduation step. The graduation step also
changes when adding or removing weight from the forks. As an
example, if a load of 650 kg is gradually reduced, the indication
will switch to 0.5 step graduation as soon as the weight becomes
less than 500 kg.
Before weighing
Before each weighing it is necessary to check whether the sys-
tem is unloaded and free. The indicator is fitted with an auto-
matic zero correction. This means that small deviations of the
zero point will be corrected automatically. If the indicator does
not determine the zero point automatically, it must be done man-
ually using the >0< key.
Gross weighing
When the load is lifted, the display indicates the gross weight of
the load.
Net weighing: Automatic tare
The indicator offers the possibility to reset tare weights to zero
automatically. This way added or subtracted weights can be
determined. After taring, the graduation on the display will not
change.
• Perform weighing as follows:
1. Lift the load
2. Depress the ÅÆTbutton.
-“0” (zero) is displayed.
-"NET" is displayed, indicating that the tare weight has
been activated.
3. Adding/removing net weight
- The net weight of the weighed load is displayed.
- When unloading, this value becomes negative.
4. Depress the ÅÆTbutton again, the gross weight is dis-
played.

Net weighing: Manual tare entry
It is possible to enter a tare weight at any time, i.e. when the
truck is loaded or unloaded.
To achieve higher precision, a tare weight with smaller gradua-
tion steps can be entered in disregard of the weight of the load
and the current graduation steps of the display.
• Perform weighing as follows:
1. Depress the ÆPT button for 3 seconds.
- The display shows the current tare value.
- The right digit is flashing.
2. Depress the ENTER (↵) button if the current tare value is
required.
Or
1. Depress the ÆPT button for 3 seconds.
2. Depress the ∧ button to go up a value or press the ∨ button
to go down a value until the required value is reached.
3. Depress <to change to the next digit.
4. Repeat this procedure until the required tare value is dis-
played.
5. Depress ENTER (↵) to activate the tare weight.
- The tare weight has now been activated.
- "NET" is displayed.
- If the system holds a load at that moment, the net weight
of the load will be displayed.
- If no load is on the system at that moment, the display will
show the entered tare value as a negative value.
- The entered value will remain active until a new tare
weight is entered (display shows the new net weight).
- Depress the ÅÆT button to return to gross weighing
mode.
Code entry
The indicator offers the possibility to enter 1 numeric code of 6
digits. Entry of codes is useful when the weighing system is con-
nected to a printer or other peripheral equipment, in order to
identify various weighings during a later processing of the infor-
mation.
1. Depress the No button for 3 seconds.
- The display will show the last used code with the right digit
flashing.
2. To accept the old value press ENTER (↵).
- The code is activated and the display returns to the weigh-
ing mode.

cial printout will be made which includes the code. (See
option printer).
NOTE!
If the code is “000000” it will be ignored and it will not be
printed on the ticket.
Piece counting: Sampling
If an unknown piece weight is to be determined you may do this
by sampling a certain number of pieces. The number of pieces
taken from or placed on the weighing system determines the
accuracy of the sampling. The total weight of the pieces taken
from or placed on the weighing system for the sampling should
be no less than 4-5 kg. The greater the weight difference, the
greater accuracy. The standard sampling amount is 10 pieces,
but this number can be increased up to 95 pieces.
NOTE!
If the accuracy is too low when sampling, the indicator will
show "ERR05". Press any key to return to piece counting
mode and increase the sampling amount.
1. Depress the button.
- The display shows "add10". The 'kg' pointer turns off and
the 'pcs' pointer goes on.
2. Take or place 10 pieces from/on the weighing system and
press the ENTER (↵) key.
- The sampling is done and the display will show the total
number of pieces on the weighing system.
Or
1. Depress the ∧ button or the ∨key to change the number of
pieces to add.
