ED2 Series SkidWeigh
User’s Manual
(Vehicle Operator Copy)
The ED2 Series SkidWeigh is fully automatic lift truck / loader check weighing /overload warning system. This is not a
“
Legal for Trade
” weighing scale, but an economical onboard check weighing system that will allow your lift truck /
loader operator to determine the load weight readout /- 0.5% to +/- 1% of the vehicle lifting capacity.
Static Weighing Method
(All ED2 Series SkidWeigh Systems)
1. Insert the forks into the pallet or under the product to be weighed. Lower the forks to the
ground. The number
“8”
in the
Mode
display window must be shown before you can initiate a
“Weighing Cycle”.
If any other number is shown on display, including 0 on right side, lower the
forks to the ground.
2.
When the number “
8”
is shown in
Mode
display, the system is ready to weigh the product on
the forks.
3.
IMPORTANT
:
Activate the lift control lever
“quickly”
and lift the load just above the ground
.
Do not attempt to lift the load slowly.
4. Do not tilt the load or move the vehicle or lift the load “higher” than just above the ground). (All
of the load weighing must be done within the free lift of the vehicle.)

5. As soon as the load has been lifted, the digital display will go blank for a moment and the load
weight value of the product lifted will be displayed. This product load weight will be shown on
the indicator until the next time the forks are being lowered to the ground.
To initiate another
“Weighing Cycle”
, the indicator
MUST SHOW
number “
8”
in the
“Mode”
display
window. If the display shows 0, 10, 20 or any other value, you will not be able to take another load weight
measurement. Lower the forks to the ground!
