Maintenance Tips
-
Keep the scale clean: Wipe the weighing platform and dial housing regularly with a damp cloth; avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch surfaces or damage the dial.
-
Check and recalibrate the dial: Periodically verify that the scale reads correctly using a known reference weight; adjust the zero‑point or calibration as needed to maintain accuracy.
-
Prevent overloading: Do not exceed the scale’s maximum rated capacity — overloading can damage the internal spring or mechanism and throw off accuracy.
-
Protect from moisture and humidity: Store in a dry environment; keep away from water or damp surfaces to prevent rust or internal corrosion.
-
Inspect mechanical parts: Check the rotating dial, pointer, platform mounting, and adjustment screws for wear or looseness — tighten or service if parts become loose.
-
Handle gently: Avoid shocks, drops, or heavy impacts on the scale, as sudden jolts can deform springs or damage internal mechanisms.
