Installation
This section provides an overview of the BenchMark HE-X installation procedure and grounding information.
2.1 Unpacking
Immediately after unpacking, visually inspect the scale to ensure that the unit is undamaged. The shipping carton should
contain the bench scale and this manual. If the bench scale was damaged in shipment, notify Rice Lake Weighing Systems and
the shipper immediately.
2.2 Leveling the Scale
1. Place the scale in the desired location that is reasonably level and free of unnecessary vibrations and air currents.
2. Lift off the scale top cover and locate the level bubble.
3. Adjust the four corner feet on the scale base until the level bubble and all feet contact the support surface so the scale
does not rock.
4. Lock the jam nuts on the feet when the final level is correct.
2.3 Connecting the Load Cell Cable
All models come with 10' color-coded load cell cable.
Do not cut this cable. Cutting this cable voids the warranty.
See the indicator manual to determine the proper load cell cable input connector. Use the following color codes to
wire the load cell cable to the indicator.
Connect Sense and Excitation wires together if using 4-wire system without sense leads.
