CAUTION:
Do not move the unit while the load cells are unlocked, as
this can damage the load cells.
Stationary units are shipped with three red plastic components locking
the load cells in place: one large locking plate, and two small centering
spacers. Use the below steps to remove these plastic pieces after
initially uncrating the unit.
1. Use an adjustable wrench (not provided; example shown in Figure
2.7) to loosen the bolt.
2. Once the bolt is loosened enough, remove the bolt, followed by
the two red plastic centering spacers (Figure 2.5). Then replace the
bolt; do not re-tighten yet.

spacers (only required after initial uncrating).
3. Prior to inserting the screw jack (from load cell unlocking kit,
Mettler Toledo part #30219938), ensure that the bottom bolt on the
load cells is fastened tightly. Then insert the small screw jack at the
top of the bolt (Figure 2.6).
