scale might receive damaging side impacts from
wheels or forklift tines.
The interface cable that connects the scale platform
to the digital indicator MUST be protected from
crushing, cutting, or moisture damage. Protecting
the cable with conduit is recommended.
THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR THE
SCALE TO BECOME INOPERABLE IS DUE TO
INTERFACE CABLE DAMAGE. BE SURE TO PROTECT
THE CABLE AND KEEP IT OUT OF HARM’S WAY.
For best results, the scale should be installed on
smooth level concrete. Installing the scale on dirt,
gravel or asphalt is not acceptable.

all the way into each of the four loadcells
located at the corners of the platform.
2. Place the scale on the floor in the location of
intended use. Remove all shipping guards.
3. Adjust any “high” corners not in contact with
the floor by inserting a flat blade screwdriver
into the top access hole over the leveling
foot, and with a clockwise motion, screw the
