Installation of Load Cell Support Plate on Double Weighbridge
In double weighbridge scenarios, attach the load cell support plates to the
weighbridges using the supplied hardware.
We suggest you use the load cell alignment tools to facilitate accurate
alignment of weighbridge(s) and load cell base plates before installing the
load cells. See illustration of the tool at left.
If alignment tools are not used, skip to the next section.
Using hydraulic jacks, raise the weighbridge(s) enough to remove the wooden
blocks. Insert the alignment tools on the base plates. Slowly lower the
weighbridge(s) while making adjustments to the base plates so the alignment
tools engage the load cell support plate while maintaining vertical alignment.
When the weighbridge(s) are resting on all the alignment tools, check for
proper clearances and vertical alignment of the alignment tools. Make any
necessary adjustments and tighten all base plate bolts.
