5. Fundamental information
5.1 INTENDED USE

The scale you have acquired serves to determine the weighing value of the material to be
weighed. It is intended to be used as a “non-automatic“ scale. i.e. the material to be weighed is
manually and carefully placed in the centre of the weighing plate. The weighing value can be
read off after a stable weighing value has been obtained.
5.2 INAPPROPRIATE USE

Do not use the scale for dynamic weighing. 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“ in the scale. (Example: Slow draining off of liquid from a container
suspended from the balance).
Do not leave a permanent load on the weighing plate. This can damage the measuring
equipment. Be sure to avoid impact shock and overloading the balance in excess of the
prescribed maximum load rating (max.), minus any possible tare weight that is already present.
This could cause damage to the scale.
Never operate the balance in hazardous locations.
The series design is not explosion proof.
Structural alterations may not be made to the balance. This can lead to incorrect weighing
results, faults concerning safety regulations as well as to destruction of the scale.
The scale may only be used in compliance with the described guidelines.
Varying areas of application/planned use must be approved by BOSCHE in writing.
Do not use the crane balance to transport loads.
5.3 GUARANTEE
BOSCHE offers Limited Warranty (Parts and Labour) for the components failed due to defects
in materials or workmanship. Warranty starts from the date of delivery.
BOSCHE shall have the right to either repair the fault or supply a replacement unit. Repairs
carried out under the warranty does not extend the warranty period.
The guarantee is not valid following:
• non-observation of our guidelines in the operating instructions
• use outside the described applications
• alteration to or opening of the device
• mechanical damage and damage caused by media, liquids
• natural wear and tear
• inappropriate erection or electric installation
5.4 MONITORING THE TEST SUBSTANCES

The metrology features of the balance and any possible available adjusting weight must be
checked at regular intervals within the scope of quality assurance. For this purpose, the
answerable user must define a suitable interval as well as the nature and scope of this check.
5.5 ACCEPTANCE CHECK

Please check the packaging immediately upon delivery and the device during unpacking
for any visible signs of external damage.
5.6 PACKAGING
Please retain all parts of the original packaging in case it should be necessary to return items at
any time. Only the original packaging should be used for return consignments.

6.2 GENERAL INSTALLATION
• The scales should not be placed in a location that will reduce the
accuracy.
• Avoid extremes of temperature. Do not place in direct sunlight or
near air conditioning vents.
• Avoid unsuitable tables. The table or floor must be rigid and not
vibrate.
• Avoid unstable power sources. Do not use near large users of
electricity such as welding equipment or large motors.
• Do not place near vibrating machinery.
• Avoid high humidity that might cause condensation. Avoid direct
contact with water. Do not spray or immerse the scales in water.
• Avoid air movement such as from fans or opening doors. Do not
place near open windows or air-conditioning vents.
• If the scale is long time not in use, please charge every 3 month the
battery.
• Keep the scales clean.
• Do not stack material on the scales when they are not in use.
Attention: ⇒ A warm-up time of 15 minutes stabilises the measured values after switching on.
⇒ Do not stack material on the scales when they are not in use.
⇒ Place the products in the middle of the scale.
⇒ Don’t overload the scale.
6.3 SET BACKLIGHT
Press for backlight setting, press key to change backlight mode:

Bl au ⇒ “Auto Backlight” mode. backlight will on when press any key or add load on
scale. After 5 seconds turn the backlight off.
bl on ⇒ Backlight always on.
bloFF ⇒ Backlight always off.
Press key to sure.
6.4 UNITS SELECTION
Press to choose the unit weight and the display will be showed “kg” or “lb” symbol
on the top right of the LCD display.
The unit status will be memorized when you turn the machine off.

7. WEIGHING FUNCTION
Switch the indicator on by pressing the power switch is located on the base on the right side of
the scale. Next a self-test is followed. At the end of the self-test, it will display "0.0". The display
shows STABLE-Symbol .
A warm-up time of 15 minutes stabilises the measured values after switching on.
Once the weight display appears, the scale is ready for use. Place the products on the scale.
The indicator will show the weight.
7.1 RESETTING THE SCALE TO ZERO

Environmental influences can cause the scale not to display exactly "0.0", even though the
scale is empty.
The scale has an automatic re-zeroing function to account for minor drifting or accumulation of
material on the platform. However you may need to press to re-zero the scale if small
amounts of weight are still shown when the platform is empty, and thereby be certain that all
weighing operations begin at zero. The display shows ZERO-Symbol ( 0).
Switch the scale on. If the scale not to display exactly

“0.00”, press .
Please do not add item that is over

the maximum capacity. When
reading “—OL—“ and hear beeping
sound, remove the item from the
scale to avoid damage to the load
cell.
Resetting to zero even when there is a weight on the scale is only possible within a certain
weight range (-4 % ... +4 % of max. weight range).
If the scale cannot be reset to zero with a weight on it, this range was exceeded. By using
the scale can be reset to 0.00“.

7.2. TARE WEIGHING

The weight of any weighing container can be subtracted from the gross weight with the press of
a key, so that subsequent weight measurements always display the item’s net weight. Place
the empty container on the platform. The total weight of the container and GROSS will be
displayed. Press the key to tare the scale. The weight that was displayed is stored as the
tare value and that value is subtracted from the display, leaving zero on the display. The "NET"
indicator will be on. As product is added only the weight of the product will be shown.
7.2.1 TARE
Place the empty container The total weight of the container and
on the platform. GROSS will be displayed.
Press the key to tare The weight that was displayed is

the scale. stored as the tare value and that
The display shows "Net" value is subtracted from the display,
and " 0" leaving zero on the display. The
indicator shows " NET " .
Place the products in the
container. As product is added, only the weight
of the product will be shown.
The scale could be tared a second time by pressing , if another type of product was to be
added to the first one. Again only the weight that is added after taring will be displayed.
When the container is removed a negative value will be shown. If the scale was tared just
before removing the container this value is the gross weight of the container plus all product
that was removed.
Deleting Tara - To delete the stored tare weight, remove any weights from the balance and
press the key. The display shows ZERO-Symbol ( 0).
7.2.2 PRETARE – Handtara

This method allows you to enter a value for the tare weight from the keypad. This is useful if all
containers are the same or if the container is already full but the net weight is required and the
weight of the container is known.
• Press key, the display will appear 0 --.--p . Input the number of pre-tare
value by and key, then, the display shows the negative pre-tare value and the
indicator “Net” and (PT) “ ” are on.
• Put the container and commodity on the platter, the display will show the net weight of the
commodity.
PRETARE recall - Press , keys ⇒ The display will show the pre-tare value .
PRETARE clear - Press , , keys ⇒ At this moment, the display return to 0,
the indication “Net” and (PT) “ ” are off.

7.3 CHECK-WEIGHING
Check-weighing is a procedure to cause an alarm to sound when the weight on the scale meets
or exceeds values stored in memory. The memory holds values for a high limit and a low limit.

weighing to counting and vice versa or when changing weighing units.
♦ The accumulative data will be cleared when you turn the machine off.
7.4.3 Re-calling accumulated values

Press to display the accumulative number of weighing and accumulated weight.
The indication (M+) will be flashing on the display, after 3 second, the scale will automatically
revert to the weighing mode.
Attention:
The scale will not display the “-” symbol for any negative total accumulated weight, but each
negative weight and negative total accumulated weight will be printed out with the negative “-”
symbol.

7.5 COUNTING FUNCTION
7.5.1 Simple counting
Press to select
sample size. By pressing you can select
select sample size (10, 20, 50, 100
pieces)
Put the sample number
(same as you choose on
the step 1) on the platter
The display will show sannp .
and press key. When the scale is stable and display
shows the present quantity on the
platter, the sampling procedure is
finished.
Place the products on the

scale. As more weight is added, the display
will show the number of parts (pcs).
Attention:
We recommend that you use the largest possible reference quantity. The balance computes the mean
weight per unit and stores it as the reference weight. It is unlikely that all units have exactly the same
weight and, therefore, the reference weight will be more accurate when the reference quantity is
higher.
♦ The larger the sample size, the more accurate the unit weight.
♦ A sample size of 10 pieces gives a typical count accuracy of 95%.
♦ A sample size of 50 pieces gives a typical count accuracy of 98%.
SAMPLE TOO SMALL ( ) ⇒ Sample is less than 20 divisions.
UNIT WEIGHT TOO SMALL ( ) ⇒ Unit weight is less than 1/5 of a division.
Under such condition, the scale can still work, but may result in deviation.
Press key to go back to the weighing mode.
