HOW DO I WEIGH AND ADD A LOAD?
Depending on the settings selected at installation, there are two possible methods for weighing and adding loads:
Method
Definition
Static Weighing
Bucket loads are weighed when the vehicle is stable for a specified amount of time.
This method is ideally suited for small wheel loaders and forklifts where a short pause in
the loading cycle time will not significantly impact productivity.
Trigger-Point Weighing
Bucket loads are weighed when lifted past a specific point. This method is ideally suited for
vehicles where the loading cycle time must be as short as possible.
2.4.1. Static
Weighing
When the
Total
screen is displayed and the
(
Trigger light
) has illuminated, bucket loads can be weighed.
IMPORTANT:
When weighing a bucketload, the loader must be level with the bucket kept fully-rolled back.
1) Lift the bucket load until it is stable (Depending on your settings, you may see the live weight of the bucket load before
it stabilizes).
The Indicator will beep,
(
Trigger light
) will illuminate and the weight of the current load and the short total will
display.
2) Press
to add the load.
A message will display the number of buckets added to the current load, for example
Bucket Add #1
.
When the load has been added, the
Total
screen will display with the new short total and the number of added bucketloads.
2.4.2. Trigger-Point
Weighing
When the
Ready
screen is displayed, bucketloads can be weighed.
IMPORTANT:
When weighing a bucketload, the loader must be level with the bucket kept fully-rolled back.
1) Raise the bucketload smoothly past the trigger point using constant engine revs.
The
Weighing
message will display.
2) The Indicator will beep,
(
Trigger light
) will illuminate and the
Live Weight
screen will display the weight of the
current load, the short total and the potential new weight.
3) Press
to add the load.
A message will display the number of buckets added to the current load, for example
Bucket Add #1
.
NOTE:
If
is not pressed within 8 (eight) seconds of the load being lifted past the Trigger Point, the Indicator will beep
and the
Time Out
message will display. The weight will then be discarded and the
Ready
screen will display. The number
of seconds before the Indicator times out may differ, depending on how it was configured during installation.
When the load has been added, the
Ready
screen will display with the new short total and the number of added bucketloads.
