Installing the Scale
2. Select a location that is flat, solid, level, and one that fully supports the weight of
the platform plus a full capacity load.
3. Remove the top of the crate and all packing material.
4. Screw two (2) eyebolts into the threaded adapters in the platform top.
5. Use a forklift or other lifting means, along with chains, cables, or nylon straps to
remove the scale from the crate bottom.
TWO TYPES of EYE BOLTS
 Closed Gap Eyebolts
 Open Gap Eyebolts (NOT USED)
 Lifting Hooks (NOT USED)
6. Set the scale so that 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.
7. Level the scale using a screwdriver to turn the threaded 'leg' of the foot assembly.
C A U T I O N
DO NOT use hooks or unclosed eyebolts.
Failure to use proper lifting tools
may result in personal injury.
