Carefully read these instructions to assure proper installation and performance of the scale.
PREPARATION
Standard preparation of the floor scale consists of the following steps:
1.
Select a site
2.
Check levelness and smoothness of the site
3.
Unpack the scale
4.
Adjust the four leveling feet on the scale
5.
Connect cable to junction box and indicator
6.
Calibrate the unit
SITE SELECTION
Be careful to select a location that will prevent accidental overloading of the 510 series. Avoid installing
the scale in areas where damage may occur such as impacts from heavy machinery, wheels, forklift
tines or shock damage from falling objects.
The interface cable between the 510 series and the indicator must be secured to the floor or wall and
protected against crushing, cutting or water damage. If the site has such potential dangers, a method
of protection such as running the cable in conduit is recommended.
UNCRATING
Remove the packing material and inspect the 510 series for any visible damage caused during
shipment. If damage is present, notify your freight carrier immediately to register a claim.
INSTALLATION
A. Lifting and moving the 510 series can be done using a forklift, inserting the forks thru the two
forklift channels provided in the deck.
B. Remove and turn around the four (4) load feet that are stored underneath the scale deck.
(DO NOT LOCK JAM NUT AT THIS TIME UNTIL IN FINAL POSITION. THE EQUIPMENT
WILL NEED TO LEVELED WHEN IN FINAL POSITION.) At that time the jam nuts will be
secured.
C. Assure that each leveling foot is securely resting on the floor and the base is level and not
rocking.
