HOW TO SET UP AND OPERATE THE SYSTEM
Note: Typical six pad arrangement (Figure 2) allows for easy weighing of
both two and three axle vehicles. Plan to weigh groups of the same type
vehicles for most efficient operations.
BATTERY OPERATION
Note: Turn the ON/OFF Switch to OFF when weighing is not taking
place to extend operation time before battery recharge is required.
1)
Set the weigh pads on a firm level surface to achieve the best
accuracy. Weigh pads are completely interchangeable and may be
connected in any order with the same system. Do not interchange
between systems.
2)
Connect the cables as shown in figures 2, 3, or 4, with color of
cable connector matching color of pad connector at each connec-
tion.
CAUTION: Snap cable strain reliefs to eyelets in weigh pad handles.
3)
Turn the meter ON/OFF Switch to ON. Verify that all display
segments and lamps light during the segment check (88888). Wait
until the program nunber has been displayed and a stable reading
appears on the display.
4)
With the weigh pads unloaded push the ZERO Switch to zero the
display.
5)
To check calibration push the Cal Switch and compare the
number on the display with the Cal number stamped on the serial
number tag under the meter lid. If the numbers are different,
remove the SPAN adjust cap and adjust the span screw until the
numbers agree. Release the Cal Switch and verify that the display
returns to zero. Replace the Span cap.
6)
Close the meter lid to prevent moisture and/or dirt from entering
the meter.
7)
The system is now ready for weighing operation. Use two weigh
pads per axle.
Note: Ensure that only one wheel on each side of duals is centered on the
pads.
