1. INTENDED USE
WPY scales are the response for the market demands concerning simplicity
of operation and high functionality. They are intended for quick and precise
weighing in industrial and laboratory conditions. The state-of-the-art
weighing terminal with TFT 5.7” colour graphic displays with touch
panels allows for intuitive operation without using keys.
Scales are equipped with 2 USB interfaces, 2 RS232 connectors, port
Ethernet and 4 inputs/4 outputs (digital). They can cooperate with barcode
scanners, receipt printers, label printers, transponder card readers (RFID)
and standard PC equipment: mouse, keyboard, pendrives (limited use).
2. PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES
A. Please, read carefully this user manual before and use the device
according to its intended use;
B. Weighed loads should be placed in possibly central part of scale pan;
C. Do not clean the device with agents causing corrosion;
D. Weighing pan should be loaded with goods having gross mass lower
than maximal capacity of the scale;
E. Do not leave loads on the pan for longer period of time ;
F. In case of failure, immediately disconnect scale power supply;
G. Devices that are to be withdrawn from usage should be utilized
according to the law.
3. WARRANTY CONDITIONS
A. RADWAG is obliged to repair or change those elements that appears
to be faulty because of production and construction reason,
B. Defining defects of unclear origin and outlining methods of elimination
can be settled only in participation of a user and the manufacturer
representatives,
C. RADWAG does not take any responsibility connected with destructions
or losses derives from non-authorized or inappropriate (not adequate
to manuals) production or service procedures,

8
D. Warranty does not cover:
• Mechanical failures caused by inappropriate maintenance of
the device or failures of thermal or chemical origin or caused
by atmospheric discharge, overvoltage in mains or other
random event,
• Inappropriate cleaning.
E. Forfeiture of warranty appears after:
• Access by an unauthorized service,
• Intrusion into mechanical or electronic construction
of unauthorized people,
• Installing another operating system,
• Removing or destroying protection stickers.
F. The detailed warranty conditions one can find in warranty certificate.
G. Contact with the central authorized service:
[phone] ext. 106 or 107.
4. UNPACKING AND MOUNTING
4.1.Scales of WPY/C series
A. Take the device out of the package,
B. Put the scale on an even stiff ground,
C. Remove transport protection:
D. Scale should be levelled by turning regulation feet. Levelling is
correct if air bubble is situated in the central position:

9
4.2.Scales of WPY/D series
A. Take the device out of the package,
B. Put the scale on an even stiff ground,
C. Fit the pan and the bracket under the device according to the drawing:
E. Scale should be levelled by turning regulation feet. Levelling is correct
if air bubble is situated in the central position:
