3  Basic Information (General) 
3.1  Proper use 
The balance you purchased is intended to determine the weighing value of material 
to  be  weighed.  It  is  intended  to  be  used  as  a  “non-automatic  balcance”,  i.e.  the 
material  to  be  weighed  is  manually  and  carefully  placed  in  the  centre  of  the 
weighing pan.. As soon as a stable weighing value is reached the weighing value 
can be read. 
3.2  Improper Use 
Do not use balance for dynamic weighings. In the event that small quantities are 
removed or added to the material to be weighed, incorrect weighing results can be 
displayed due to the “stability compensation“. (Example: Slowly draining fluids from 
a container on the balance.) 
Do  not  leave  permanent  load  on  the  weighing  pan.  This  may  damage  the 
measuring system. 
Impacts and overloading exceeding the stated maximum load (max) of the balance, 
minus a possibly existing tare load,  must be  strictly avoided. Balance may  be 
damage by this. 
Never operate balance in explosive environment. The serial version is not explosion 
protected. 
The structure of the  balance  may  not be  modified.  This  may  lead to  incorrect 
weighing results, safety-related faults and destruction of the balance. 
The balance may only be used according to the described conditions. Other areas 
of use must be released by KERN in writing.
