SCALE EQUIPPED MODELS (GRIP & WEIGH ATTACHMENTS)
If your equipment has a scale system, the indicator has already been calibrated and tested
before leaving the factory. It has been disconnected and packaged separately for safe travel.
Unpack the indicator from the box and mount to the unit on the provided bracket. Connect the
indicator cable to the unit cable by screwing the male and female ends together. Turn on the
indicator and ensure it reads zero before engaging a drum. If handling liquids in a drum, it may
take up to one minute for the indicator to settle on a specific weight. To speed up this process it
is recommended to set the indicator to a lower sensitivity. This can be achieved by programming
the indicator to read in .5 pounds or .25 kilograms. If set to read in 1.0 or .5 kg. increments it will
take less time for the indicator to settle-down on a specific weight. Please refer to the manual of
the specific indicator for proper operation instructions.
