Maintenance
Periodically check the operation of the wheel weigh pads to ensure accuracy over time.
The pads must be checked by a specialist with test weights to obtain an official calibration certificate.

The following procedure can also be used for an uncertified check of the operation of the wheel weigh pads:
Place one or two pads on the edge of a truck scale and proceed with the weighing of individual wheel or the first axle. Ensure
the weights displayed by the two systems are equal.
