(a) When any weight, measure, or weighing or measuring instrument has been repaired and corrected, and has been reinspected and found correct, the sealer shall remove the tag or device with the words “out of order,” and shall seal and mark that weight, measure, or weighing or measuring instrument in the manner provided for the marking of the same where, upon inspection, it is found correct.
(b) Upon completion of corrective repairs or adjustments, and with the authorization from the sealer, a registered service agency, as defined in Section 12531, may remove an “out of order” tag or device, and the weight, measure, or weighing or measuring instrument may be placed in service pending reinspection by the sealer.
Notes

Allows an authorized registered service agency, after completing corrective repairs or adjustments, to remove the tag and place the equipment in service pending the sealer’s later reinspection.
