The customer is solely responsible for material damage and injury of persons resulting from an improper use, Messrs. KERN & Sohn will not be liable under any circumstance.
Pay attention to the instructions in the Operation Manual Carefully read this operation manual before setup and commissioning, even if you are already familiar with KERN balances. Proper use The balance you purchased is intended to determine the weighing value of material to be weighed.
Information is available on KERN’s home page (www.kern-sohn.com) with regard to the monitoring of balance test substances and the test weights required for this. In KERN’s accredited DKD calibration laboratory test weights and balances may be...

Label Do not stand or go under suspended loads. Do not use on building site. Keep an eye on suspended loads. Do not exceed nominal rated load of balance. (example) The product conforms to the requirements of the German Equipment and Product Safety Act.
(see chapter 8.3) If the dimensions of your first safety inspection do not match those of KERN, the balance must not be put into operation. In this case please contact a service partner authorised by Messrs. KERN.
Suspending the balance Condition The crane needs a safety bracket (1) that the unloaded suspended balance cannot fall down. If the safety bracket is missing or damaged, please contact the crane manufacturer in order to receive a hook with this safety equipment. ...
5. Operation Safety instructions Risk of injury due to falling loads! DANGER Take great care when operating the crane and follow the general rules for crane operation. Check all parts (hook, carbines, rings, rope slings, cables, chains etc.) for excessive wear or damage ...
Loading the suspended balance For good weighing results observe the following, illustrations see next page: Only use load attachment devices which guarantee a one-spot suspension and where the scales can be suspended freely. Do not use too large load attachment devices which do not guarantee any one- spot suspension.
Page 28
Always used the correct load attachment device, e.g. HCB 100K200 Only use attachment devices which guarantee a one-point suspension and where the scales can be suspended freely. Do not use too large attachment devices which cannot guarantee a one-point suspension.

5.7.1 Data-Hold function Switch on the balance, keep the HOLD-key pressed until the current setting „Hx“ (H1 – H6) appears. Press ON/OFF button repeatedly until the desired setting „H1-H4“ is displayed. Confirm setting with the HOLD button. ...
5.7.3 Peak value function This function displays the highest load value (peak value) of a weighing. Measuring frequency: 200ms Attention: Never exceed the maximum permitted load of the peak value on the balance (!!Danger of breaking!!). Switch on the balance, keep the HOLD-key pressed until the current setting „Hx“ (H1 –...
7. Adjustment As the acceleration value due to gravity is not the same at every location on earth, each balance must be coordinated - in compliance with the underlying physical weighing principle - to the existing acceleration due to gravity at its place of location (only if the balance has not already been adjusted to the location in the factory).
If there arose discrepancies with the safety checklist, the balance must not more be put into operation. Do not repair the suspended balance yourself. Repair may only be carried out by service partners authorized by Messrs. KERN. Cleaning and Disposal Damage to suspended balance! ...
To check the dimensions only use suitable test devices. The regular 12-month maintenance must only be carried out by trained specialized staff (KERN customer service). The results of the maintenance must be written down in the checklist (chap. 8.3).
