 4000 Count Series    

5. LEGAL FOR TRADE 

When the scale is used in trade or a legally controlled application it must be set up, verified and 
sealed in accordance with local weights and measures regulations. It is the responsibility of the 
purchaser to ensure that all pertinent legal requirements are met. 

5.1 Capacity Label 

A label showing the capacity and readability of the scale must be installed near each display. If 
the Capacity Labels were installed prior to delivery, no further action is needed. If the Capacity 
Labels  were  not  installed,  they  have  been  placed  in  the  packaging  material.  Affix  the  labels 
above the displays as shown in Figure 5-1. 

Note:

 The Capacity Labels will be destroyed upon removal, so only attempt to install them once.

5.2 Settings

 

Before verification and sealing, perform the following steps: 
1. Verify that the menu settings meet the local weights and measures regulations. 
2. Perform a calibration as explained in Section 3.9. 
3. Set the switch to Locked. See figure 5-1. 
 
The  Menu  Lock  switch  limits  changes  to  the  Cal,  Setup,  Readout,  Unit  and  Print  menus.  The 
switch  in  type  approved  models  may  set  some  scale  settings  as  required  by  the  approval 
agency. The switch may be secured using paper seals, wire seals or plastic ties.  
 

Note:

  When  LEGAL  FOR  TRADE  is  set  to  ON  (LFT  Switch  in  locked  position),  the  menu 

settings are affected as follows: 

 

Calibration (

5.2 Verification and Sealing 

The local weights and measures official or authorized service agent must perform the 
verification procedure. 
 

5.3.1 Physical Seals

 

For jurisdictions that use the physical sealing method, the local weights and measures official or 
authorized service agent must apply a security seal to prevent tampering with the settings. 
Refer to the illustration below for sealing methods.
