SETTING UP THE SCALES 

 

  The pillar is attached to the base using a bracket that must be attached to the base 

frame  first  using  the  4  bolts  supplied.   The pillar  is  secured  to  the  bracket using 2 
sets of screws.  The cable from the base to the indicator module is run through the 
tube  and  taken  out  through  the  plastic  support  at  the  top.    Excess  cable  can  be 
stored within the tube.   

 

  The  GBK/GFK-Mplus  series  comes  with  a  stainless  steel  platform  packed 

separately. Place the platform in the base. 

 

  Level the scale by adjusting the four feet. If the scale rocks re-adjust the feet. 

 

 

  Attach  the  indicator  module  to  the  pillar  by  sliding  it  over  the  bracket  with  the 

flanges engaged in the groves on the base. Attach the cable from the base to the 
connector on the rear of the indicator. 

 

  Attach  the  power  to  the  indicator.  Press  the  [On/Off]  key.  The  software  revision 

number will be displayed followed by a self-test showing all digits before the zero is 
displayed along with the unit of weight that was selected last. 

 

  If the scale is an approved version, GBK/GFK-Mplus, and the Calibration Counter 

has  been  enabled  (see  section  6)  the  current  values  will  be  displayed.    These 
values should match the values marked on the scale at the time of verification, if it 
has been verified.
