Verify Correctness of
Weight and Price
Operator Manual Terminology
Routinely verify label information. Check the multiplication of
price per pound times weight, and check the scale weight against
printed label weight. Weigh the same package several times to
verify outcome consistency. Packages that weigh near the middle
of the 0.005 lb. increment will vary up or down by 0.005 lb. Variation greater than 0.005 lb indicates the need for weigher adjustment. In such a case, or whenever necessary, contact your local
Hobart Representative.
This manual uses the following terminology for keystrokes and
data manipulation procedures:
• The word TOUCH means to activate an entry shown on the
Operator Display screen.
The following special instructions are used in the manual:
