8.1.3 Installation
The load cell is installed at the dead end of the wire rope that is being used to lift the load. Use the
appropriate pins for the type and size of socket, block or ball that is being used. Note: The pin size
should have been specified when ordered and should match the existing pin diameter. Ensure that the
correct pin used is rated for the maximum line pull capacity. For the 7.5 ton load cell, install the pin so
the pin head on the antenna side. The pin diameter, jaw thickness and jaw opening used to connect to
the load cell will effect position of the antenna. There is 90° fitting for the antenna P/N 031-300-050-
535 maybe necessary in some cases. Ensure all safety pins are installed properly with washers and
bushing to fit the hole diameter and pin length.

and bushing to fit the hole diameter and pin length.
