This final base plate elevation adjustment should be made to match the mV/V outputs of the
load cells to assure correct distribution of the scale's deadload among the eight (8) points of
support. Adjust the base plate leveling screws (equally) to match loadcells 3, 4, 5, and 6.
Then adjust to match loadcells 1, 2, 7, and 8. When this has been completed, ensure each
load cell base plate is level to within 1/64” per foot.

NOTE: The load cell numbering sequence shown is designed for interfacing Fairbanks INTA-
LOGIX technology instrumentation.

6: Perform a final check to all:

• Load cell base plates are level to within 1/64” per foot.

• All Cell assemblies are centered on base plates, & All Load cells are vertical and plumb

• Top bearing plate centers on the wear plate at each flexure

• Top bearing plate assembly and stiffener plates are level to 1/64” per foot and at right
angles to the main beam web(s).

• Upper flexures are level to 1/64” per foot with weight and without weight, and shimmed
properly

• Top flanges of the main beams are absolutely level and on the same plane as the end sec-
tions.
• There is correct distribution of the scale's deadload among the eight (8) points of support.

• All assembly hardware is secure
