DESCRIPTION
Ohaus School balances are manufactured from die cast aluminum, are rugged and
easytouse. Thebalancesareintendedforuseinprimaryandintermediateeducation
applications. They are easy to zero, produce quick readings due to their damping
mechanism, have four corned pans for easy pouring and are designed for specific
gravitymeasurements. Capacityofthebalanceis2000gramswitha readability of0.5
grams. Thebalancewillreproducepreciselyforyearsbecauseofhardenedsteelknife
edges and steel bearings. Model 1200-00 comes equipped with an eight piece mass
set and Model 1210-00 is supplied with a four piece mass set. Models 1210-00 and
1210-50utilizeabeamwithaslidingpoisewhichintroducesthemeasurementconcept
commonly found on more advanced weighing instruments. Use of the sliding poise
eliminates the need for small masses which are easily misplaced. Models 1200-50
and 1210-50 are not equipped with a mass set.

Carefully remove the balance and pans from the carton. The corrugated shipping
inserts contain packages of push nuts and weights.
Place the balance on a reasonably flat and level surface with the color-coded,
removable pans on their matching platforms.

Before weighing and with no weight on the pans, the balance indicator should line up
with the center graduation on the recessed dial. If adjustment is necessary, rotate the
zero adjustment wheel located to the right of the dial, see Figure 2.

a readability of 0.5 gram.

To determine the specific gravity of solids less dense than water, it is necessary to
attach a sinker and then make the following weighings:
a. Weight of body in air
b. Combined weight of body in air plus sinker in water
c. Weight of both body and sinker in water

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
With reasonable care, your School Balance can be kept in good working order. Keep
it clean and do not drop it. Never apply oil or any lubricant to the pivots or bearings;
this will lower the accuracy of the balance.
