Maintenance; Functionality Of The Weighing Terminal; Print Out (Option) - Mettler Toledo BTA425 Mode D'emploi

The most accurate weighing result is obtained when the centre of gravity of the load
is placed between the forks. With an non-centric loading, the forks will tordate and
bend. This may result in a higher inaccuracy. With legal for trade versions, the level
control will switch off the indicator with a non-centric loading or a tilted position that
influences the weighing accuracy.
Non-optimal placement of the load
Temperature range: between -10 and +40° C the maximum inaccuracy is 0.1% of the
weighed load. Outside this range, inaccuracies of up to 0.3% may occur.
Fast temperature changes must be avoided because it will cause condensation in the
electronics. During acclimatisation the weighing system must be switched off.

2.3. MAINTENANCE

The maintenance guidelines for normal pallet trucks apply to the chassis of the
mobile weighing system. From experience we know that the integrated weighing
system still functions when the chassis is damaged by overloading.
Main guidelines:
- Because the steering wheels are mounted in the front, pulling of the pallet truck is
preferred above pushing it.
- When the lifting mechanism is not used, the handle should be kept in the neutral,
middle, position. This prolongs the life span of the sealings.
- The weighing system meets up to the protection class IP65. This means that dust
or moisture (rain or water beam from all sides), will not influence the operation of
the electronics. However, high-pressure cleansing in combination with warm water
or chemical cleansers will lead to the entry of moisture and therefore negatively
influence the operation of the system.
- Only specialists may undertake any welding. This is to avoid damage to
electronics and load cells.
- The bearings of the wheels (non-polyurethane) and the pivoting points of the
levelling bar of the loading wheels must be cleansed and greased regularly.
