    Installation Installation When a Combics complete scale is ordered with special equipment, the desired options come pre-loaded from the factory. Storage and Shipping Conditions Once the equipment has been removed from the packaging, it may lose accuracy if subjected to strong vibration. If the load plate is lifted using a vacuum lifting pad, gloves, safety shoes and safety gear must be worn.

    Installation Align the weighing platform leveling feet so that air bubble is centered within the circle of the level indicator. Check to ensure that all four leveling feet rest securely on the work surface. y Each of the leveling feet must support an equal load. Re-fasten the lock nuts after leveling: Small platforms (1 measuring cell) counter to the platform frame, large platforms (4 measuring cells) counter to the platform foot.
  • Page 11 Installation Shock Resistance The weighing platform has a robust design; however, falling weighing samples, side impacts and shocks should be avoided. The weighing platform can withstand loads specified in the DIN standard IEC68 Part 2-27. Notes on Planning Superstructures Superstructures must be completely attached before the weighing platform is connected to the power.
