Bolt-down plates, ramps, bumper guards, and pit frames are installed as follows:
A.
Bolt-Down Plates:
Bolt down plates are used to keep the scale from sliding or moving when loads are
applied. The plates are bolted via anchors at each of the scale's feet.
Installation:
1. Place the platform in position.
2. Place the bolt-down plate under the foot, plate edge extending out from under the
scale.
3. Drill the two holes using a hammer drill. Insert anchors with the nut and washer
already ON. Tap the anchor into the hole, then tighten the nuts securely. Repeat
this process for each plate used.
B. Ramps:
Each ramp accessory comes with two integral bolt-down plates and four (4) anchors.
Installation:
1. Place the ramp in position, then lift and set the platform feet into the bolt-down plate
holes.
2. Drill the two holes using a hammer drill. Insert anchors with the nut and washer
already ON. Tap the anchor into the hole, then tighten the nuts securely.
• If two ramps are installed, NO bolt-down plates are required.
• If one ramp is installed, a set of two bolt-down plates is required.
• Only two ramps total may be installed on opposite sides of a scale platform.
C.
Bumper Guards:
Bumper Guards are designed to help protect the platform from forklift traffic. The
guards are slightly higher than the scale, and will help deflect the forks.
1. Place the bumper guard so it will protect the platform from non-scale traffic, but it
cannot contact or interfere with the platforms movement.
