* Shared power source * Excessive vibration * Dust/Gas

• Do not subject the machine to sudden shocks.

• Do not press the keys too hard. Keys will operate correctly if they are touched lightly.

• Clean the cover and keyboard, etc. by wiping with a dry cloth or a cloth soaked with detergent and wrung out
thoroughly. Never use thinner or other volatile solvent for cleaning.

• To ensure that the scale is operating correctly, place a known weight on the platter and check it for correct
weight measurement. This should be done every morning before starting normal operations.

• When moving the machine, take hold of the case and lift the machine. Never hold the remote unit.

• Do not place the machines on unstable or slanted surfaces, as they may drop or fall and cause injury.

• USE ONLY TOSHIBA TEC SPECIFIED paper.

• DO NOT STORE the paper or ribbons where they might be exposed to direct sunlight, high temperatures, high
humidity, dust, or gas.

• Ensure the machine is operated on a level surface.

• Any data stored in the memory of the machine could be lost during a machine fault.

• Try to avoid using this equipment on the same power supply as high voltage equipment or equipment likely to
cause mains interference.

• Unplug the machine whenever you are working inside it or cleaning it.

• Keep your work environment static free.

• Do not place heavy objects on top of the machines, as these items may become unbalanced and fall causing
injury.

• Do not block the ventilation slits of the machines, as this will cause heat to build up inside the machines and
may cause fire.

• Do not lean against the machine. It may fall on you and could cause injury.

• Care must be taken not to injure yourself with the printer paper cutter.

• Unplug the machine when it is not used for a long period of time.

Request Regarding Maintenance

• Utilize our maintenance services.
After purchasing the machine, contact your authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance once a
year to have the inside of the machine cleaned. Otherwise, dust will build up inside the machines and may
cause a fire or a malfunction. Cleaning is particularly effective before humid rainy seasons.

• Our preventive maintenance service performs the periodic checks and other work required to maintain the
quality and performance of the machines, preventing accidents beforehand.
For details, please consult your authorized TOSHIBA TEC representative for assistance.

• Using insecticides and other chemicals
Do not expose the machines to insecticides or other volatile solvents. This will cause the cabinet or other parts
to deteriorate or cause the paint to peel.

• Department Number

When initial set #10-6 is set to “1”, the six-digit PLU# is divided into two; the upper two digits are assigned to department #,
and the lower four digits to PLU.
The department # is automatically added in front of four-digit PLU# and treated as a six-digit PLU#.
In case of “PROG.”, “Report”, and “Reset” modes, PLU# is treated as a six-digit number. So the upper two digits are not
treated as department #. Consequently the four-digit PLU# is available only in “REG.”, “M.DOWM”, and “REWRAP”
modes.

NOTE: The default Dept. No. is two-digit serial number ranging from 0 to 99. Entering a “0” clears a Dept. No.

• Vendor Number

Vendor numbers can be set when the Initial Setting #11-1 is set to 1.
Vendor numbers are assigned to the speed keys in two ways:

Individual vendor number: 00-39
Vendor# is assigned to the speed keys one by one.
Group vendor number: 0-, 1-, 2- and 3­Maximum 10 vendor numbers can be assigned to one speed key, resulting in 4 speed keys in total. When assigning
group vendor numbers to the speed keys, enter the first digit of the vendor key (0, 1, 2 or 3) plus a bar (-).
Vendor numbers can be called whichever half of the speed keys are selected.

1. Install an unloaded label cassette on the scale.

2. Install the label cutter, aligning the cutter notches with the screw holes.
