2.2. INSTALLATION STEPS
2.2.1. Assembling the Scale Platform
1. Remove the top of the crate and all packing material.
2. Screw the two (2) eyebolts (optional) into the threaded adapters in the platform
top.
3. It is recommended that two (2) adults remove the scale from the crate bottom.
4. Set the scale so the interface cable exits in a direction where it can be protected.
─ If possible, use a cable protector to reduce 'trip' hazards and to protect the
interface cable from being
damaged.
─ The thirty-foot (30’) cable
can be shortened as
needed.
5. Level the scale.
─ Turn the Load Cell Foot
clockwise or counter-
clockwise to level the scale.
─ Be careful not to unthread
the foot from the loading
pin.
6. Wire the scale cable to the proper type
indicator, as shown in the chart.
7. Calibrate the unit according to the
appropriate indicator service manual.
