1. When a machine is provided with a rider its verification scale interval shall be the smaller of the following—
(i)the verification scale interval of the machine not taking into account the rider, or
(ii)the scale interval of the rider device.

4. In the case of machines where the weight indicating or printing is in carat (metric) units or ounces troy the relevant capacity and verification scale interval shall be the amounts in carat (metric) or ounces troy respectively which are equivalent to those specified in the Table in terms of mg, g and kg.
