11. Check that the top plates are no more than ±0.5° out or level. Shim if
necessary and fully tighten mounting bolts.
12. If dummy cells are used, replace with actual load cells. Refer to step 3.
13. To achieve equal load distribution, make final height adjustments by
placing shims between the top plate loading bracket and the weighing
vessel. The variation in load among the cells should be no more than
20%. To accurately check load distribution, excite each load cell and
measure the output with a voltmeter.
14. Check that the bolts securing the load cell to the base plate are tight.
Torque the load cell bolts to only 20 foot-pounds. This allows the double-
ended load cell to flex under load.
