1.3. Maintenance
The maintenance guidelines for normal pallet trucks apply to the chassis of the mobile weighing
system. From experience we know that the integrated weighing system still functions when the
chassis is damaged by overloading.
Main guidelines:
‐ Because the steering wheels are mounted in the front, pulling of the pallet truck is preferred
above pushing it.
‐ When the lifting mechanism is not used, the handle should be kept in the neutral, middle,
position. This prolongs the life span of the sealings.
‐ The weighing system meets up to the protection class IP65. This means that dust or moisture
(rain or water beam from all sides), will not influence the operation of the electronics.
However, high‐pressure cleansing in combination with warm water or chemical cleansers will
lead to the entry of moisture and therefore negatively influence the operation of the system.
In case of a stainless steel chassis you should never use a detergent that contains chloride,
otherwise you will get brown spots on the chassis.
‐ Only specialists may undertake any welding. This is to avoid damage to electronics and load
cells.
‐ The bearings of the wheels (non‐polyurethane) and the pivoting points of the levelling bar of
the loading wheels must be cleansed and greased regularly.
1.4. Mobile Weighing system
A mobile weighing system is a mobile scale. This means that the owner should consider the same
maintenance as applicable with standard stationary scales.
A yearly inspection, by an authorized service provider, is recommended. And in case the scale is
stamped 'legal for trade' then the weighing system should be re‐stamped in accordance with the
metrological regulations in the country of use.
When your company is ISO certificated, it is very likely that all measuring devices should be
checked more regularly than once a year (i.e. ½ year or ¼ year). For an easy overview you can fill
out the following maintenance sheet.
DATE OF INSPECTION
Based on these recommendations we are convinced that your mobile weighing system will work
accurately and reliably for a very long time.
