3. Spreader Bar Disassembly to Scale
The spreader bar holding assembly is locked with a 0.500”x1.75” 3/8” BSW shoulder bolt and 2 nylon
spacers assembled to it. They must be removed, to disassemble the spreader bar from the weigh scale
for inspection purposes
Disassembly of the scale to spreader bar is done as follows:
1.
Remove the 3/8” BSW nyloc nut and the washer from the shoulder bolt.
2.
Remove the shoulder bolt from the U bracket, taking care to capture the 2 nylon spacers as you do
so. This will now give you access to the spreader bar assembly. (Please refer to page 6 for
spreader bar disassembly)
Assembly of spreader bar to scale:
1.
Place 2 washers onto the shoulder bolt and partially insert the bolt through the U-bracket.
2.
Place 1 nylon spacer onto the bolt inside the bracket. Place the bottom attachment of the scale into
the bracket and slide the bolt partially through it.
3.
Place the second nylon spacer inside the bracket and finish inserting the bolt through the spacers
and bracket. Assure that the 0.500” diameter shaft of the shoulder bolt is inserted through both
sides of the bracket. The final assembly will look like Fig. 1.
4.
Place a washer onto the threaded portion of the shoulder bolt and assemble the nylon insert
locknut. Tighten to assure that bolt is fully inserted into the nylon insert.
NOTE: Joerns Healthcare recommends that a new nyloc nut be used upon reassembly.
This completes the assembly.
