Cautions

Precautions for Installing the Scale

DANGER

• Ground the scale, so that the user will not be subjected to an electric shock.
• To prevent electric shock, do not handle the USB cable with wet hands.
• The USB cable is not waterproof. Install the scale in an area where it will not get wet.
• Do not install the scale where flammable or corrosive gas is present.
• Do not put excessive force on cables.
• The scale is heavy. Use caution, as lifting may cause it to fall over.

Consider the following installation conditions to get the greatest performance from your scale.

• The ideal conditions for installation are stable temperature and humidity, solid and level surface, location with no draft or vibration, indoors out of direct sunlight and a stable power supply.
• Do not install on a soft floor or where there is vibration.
• Do not install where there is wind or large fluctuations in temperature.
• Avoid locations in direct sunlight.
• Do not install in locations with strong magnetic fields or strong radio signals.
• Do not install where static electricity is likely to occur. When humidity is 45% R.H. or less, plastic and insulating materials are apt to be charged with static electricity due to friction, etc.
• Unstable AC power supply may cause malfunctions.
• Remove the protective film from the weighing pan before use.
• Sensitivity adjustment should be performed for more accurate weighing when the scale is first installed or when it is moved far. Refer to the [Instruction Manual: FG-CWP Series] on our website https://www.aandd.jp.

Precautions for Storing

• Do not disassemble the scale.
• If the scale becomes dirty, wipe it with a soft cloth slightly moistened with a mild detergent. Do not use organic solvents.
• Do not scrub with a brush or the like.
• Do not spray with strong jets of water.

Precautions for Weighing

• Do not place loads on the weighing pan that exceed the weighing capacity.
• Periodic sensitivity adjustment is recommended in order to maintain accurate weighing.(Refer to the [Instruction Manual: FG-CWP Series] on our website https://www.aandd.jp.)
• Do not apply shock to or drop anything on the weighing pan.
• Do not use a sharp instrument such as a pencil or pen to press keys or switches.
• Press the ZERO  key before each weighing to reduce the chance of error.
• Do not weigh with the scale immersed in water.
• Periodically confirm that weighing values are correct.
• The panel on the rear of the display unit should be kept closed when using the scale in order to make it dustproof and waterproof.

3. Assembling the pole Temporarily remove the screws attached to the bottom of the weighing base, and then fasten the pole and base with the removed screws, taking care that the load cell cable is not pinched. Bundle and insert the excess load cell cable into the pole from the display side.
4. Put the weighing pan on the base unit. Remove the protective film from the pan before use.

Warning: When using in a place where static electricity is likely to be generated or in a wet place, join the grounding wire to the protective grounding terminal (screw).

Maintenance
