1st you keep the object on the tray. then place the balance such that the tray holding the object is in your left hand side. the 3rd beam is used to adjust the weight in kilograms. the 2nd beam is used to adjust the weight in 100g, 200g, 300g etc. the 1st beam (the one close to you) is used to adjust the weight in 1, 2, 3, 4 etc grams. now try and move the small caps on the beams to the right. you will notice that the big bar moves up and down. if the big bar moves up that means that the object is more heavy. if it moves down then the object has a lesser weight. you have to keep on guessing and adjusting until the big bar comes to position with the 0 on the right side of the balance..

TIP : start adjusting the 1, 2, 3 g beam first
