Installing Ramps

Each mild steel ramp accessory comes with two integral bolt-down plates and four
anchors.

STEPS

1. Place the ramp in position, then lift and set the platform feet into the bolt-down

plate holes.

2. Drill the

two (2) 7/16” holes

using a hammer drill. Insert the anchors with the

nut and washer already on.

3. Tap the anchor into the hole, then tighten the nuts securely.

IMPORTANT TIPS

If two ramps are installed, then no other bolt-down plates are needed.

If only one ramp is installed, then a set of two bolt-down plates are necessary.

Only two ramps (total) may be installed on opposite sides of a scale platform.

Installing Bumper Guards

Bumper Guards help protect the platform from direct hits from forklift traffic. The
guards are slightly higher than the scale and help deflect the forks.

STEPS

1. Place the bumper guard into a position so it protects the platform from non-scale

traffic.

Place the bumper guard so it does not touch or interfere with the platform’s

movement.

2. Drill the

7/16”

fastening holes using a hammer drill.

3. Insert the anchors with the nut and washer already on it.

4. Tap the anchor into the hole.

5. Tighten the nuts securely.
