sauter FK 50 Instruction Manual page 6

Prevent jolts, torsion and oscillation (e.g. by suspending loads aslope) of all kinds,
because there is a risk of breakage and in all cases there will be a lack of measure-
ment accuracy.
Inappropriate use
Do not use the instrument for medical measurements. In the case that small quanti-
ties are removed or added to the material to be measured, incorrect measuring re-
sults can be displayed, due to the "stability compensation" in the instrument (such as
slowly draining off of liquid from a container suspended at the instrument). Do not
leave attached a continuous load. This can damage the measuring unit as well as the
parts, relevant to safety.
Overload
Be sure to prevent overloading the instrument in excess of the stated maximum load
(max.), minus any tare weight that may possibly exist. This could damage the instru-
ment (risk of breakage).
Attention:
- Always make sure that there are no people or objects below the load, which could
be injured or damaged!
- The instrument is not suitable for weighing people. Do not use it as a baby scale!
- The instrument does not comply with the medical product law (MPG).
- Never operate the instrument in hazardous locations. The series design is not ex-
plosion-proof.
- Structural alterations may not be done on the instrument. This can lead to incorrect
measuring results, faults concerning safety regulations as well as to destruction of
the instrument.
- The instrument may only be used in compliance with the described guidelines.
- Varying ranges of application or planned use must be approved by SAUTER in
writing.

• Non-observance of our guidelines in the operating instructions
