ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Before Assembly
NOTE: Carefully inspect the carton for shipping damage
before unpacking. If damage is found, contact your
shipper or Tanita Corporation immediately. Claims must
be filed with the shipper as soon as possible after receipt
of the damaged package.
One carton containing: Handlebar with control panel
box, scale platform with wheels, battery transformer and
mounting bracket, C-clamp, and eight (8) locknuts, four
(4) 1/4 x 20 allen head screws, washers, clips, and an
allen wrench.
IMPORTANT: After assembly of the scale, charge the
battery in the control box using the procedure under
“Charging the Battery” on page 3. This will restore any
power lost during storage and shipment.
Tools Needed: Adjustable wrench or 5/8" socket or
open-end wrench.
Assembling the Stand-on Scale
1. Place the platform on the floor.
2. Turn the platform up on its front edge.
3. Thread the control cable with connector through the
right handlebar mounting hole in the wheel cover.
Insert the cable into the keyway in the mounting hole.
(Fig. 1)
4. Lay the platform down. Insert the handlebar into the
(2) two mounting holes in the wheel cover. Make sure
the control cable is seated in the mounting hole
keyway. (Fig. 2)
5. Line up the holes in the handlebar with the holes
in the wheel cover. Secure the handlebar to the base
using 1/4 x 20 allen head screws, washers, and
locknuts. Tighten with the allen wrench supplied.
6. Tilt the scale on its front edge and rest the handlebar
on the floor. Screw a leveling foot into each corner of
the platform bottom. Leave about 1/4" of thread
showing. (Fig. 3) Spacers are located over each foot
stud to prevent turning the foot in too far. DO NOT
REMOVE THE SPACERS.
