Operating Instruction
Balancing Scale before use
Refer to illustration and return both major and minor poises to their respective zero
positions located to the far left side of the beam head. Turn the balance wheel to the left
or right of its initial position
(as required) until the scale is in a balanced position on the
indicator dial (the red bulls eye is centered between the two lines on the balance indica-
tor).
Weighing Procedure
Step on scale, position both feet firmly on the platform. Slide the major poise to
the right until the beam dips downward, then move the major poise back (to the left)
until it falls into the first available groove that causes the beam to rise slightly above
a balanced position. Slide the minor poise to the right until the beam indicator shows
a balanced position. Slide the minor poise to the right until the beam indicator show a
balance position. Read and total both the major and minor poise numbers. Step off the
scale and reset the major and minor poises back to zero and readjust the balance poise
if necessary.
