Once the dummy load cell stand has been removed, replace with the load cell 
Assembly per the diagram below: 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Start by placing the ceramic isolation disc into the circular ring which is part of the 
locating plate. The load cell bottom cup is then placed inside the isolation disc, with the 
anti-rotation pin insert into the cup’s blind hole. 
 
Using the supplied tube of grease, spread a moderate amount of grease on the top 
button of the load cell bottom cup. 
 
Slide the foam ring over the top of the load cell bottom cup, aligning with the anti-
rotation pin that is protruding. 
 
Place the load cell onto the assembly, taking care that the notch in the bottom of the 
load cell aligns with the anti-rotation pin. The cable connector on the load cell should 
face the center of the scale towards the conduit. 
 
Using the supplied tube of grease, spread a moderate amount of grease on the top 
button of the load cell where it fits into the recess of the load cell top cup. 
 
Slowly release the jack to lower the module, with the load cell top cup’s button seating 
in the thru hole of the module’s load cell nest.
