Fairbanks BPP2000 Portable Platform Scale - Manual (Page 16)

Section 2: Installation
Zeroing the Beam
Note: Check that the weighing platform "floats" on the levers' pivots and bearings and
does not bind or set to one side. The platform should return to a centered position if
moved to any position then released.
1. Unlock the Beam Lock Loop to allow the beam to balance.
• The beam should move up and down freely coming to rest in the center of the trig
lock opening.
2. Balance the beam by adjusting the balance ball at the butt end of the beam, using a
screwdriver.
• Turning the screw CW (Clock-Wise) raises the beam
• Turning the screw CCW (Counter Clock-Wise) lowers the beam.
The scale is now assembled.
