: The location where the scale will be installed is very important. The scale MUST be
installed on a firm and level concrete pad. Never install the scale on asphalt. Asphalt is not
hard enough to take heavy loads and the scale will sink into the asphalt over time.
Installation Procedure
1. Unpack and inspect the system components.
Below is a list of the parts and quantity:
a. Scale Platforms (2)
b. Scale Ramps (4)
c. Leveling Feet (8)
d. Foot Retaining Plates (8)
e. Indicator Stand (1)
f. Digital Indicator (1)
g. ½” Concrete Anchor Bolts (44)
2. Install the leveling feet into the weighing deck’s load cells.
Using a forklift, lift each deck and thread the feet into the load cells located
at the corners of the decks.

3. Place the first weighing deck into position.
Using a forklift, move the first weighing deck into position.
Before lowering the deck to the ground:
a. Remove the access panel to the junction box compartment and feed the cable
out the hole in the bottom of the compartment. Replace and secure panel.
Place the bundled cable on top of the weighing deck.
b. Place a retaining plate under each of the four feet, being sure to position the
two mounting holes outside the deck.
c. Carefully lower the deck to the ground.
d. Adjust the four leveling feet so that the scale is not “rocking” corner to corner.
There should be even pressure on all four leveling feet against the concrete. If
required, further adjust the feet so that the scale platform is close to being even
with the edge of the ramp.

Place the second weighing deck into position.
Using a forklift, move the first weighing deck into position.
BE SURE to maintain a ½” gap between the two weighing decks.
Before lowering the deck to the ground:
e. Remove the access panel to the junction box compartment and feed the cable
out the hole in the bottom of the compartment. Replace and secure panel.
Place the bundled cable on top the weighing deck.
f. Place a retaining plate under each of the four feet, being sure to have the two
mounting holes positioned outside the deck.
g. Carefully lower the deck to the ground.
h. Adjust the four leveling feet so that the scale is not “rocking” corner to corner.
There should be even pressure on all four leveling feet against the concrete. If
required, further adjust the feet so that the scale platform is close to being even
with the edge of the ramp.

Keep a small gap between the two decks.

4. Place the first ramp into position.
Using a forklift, move the first ramp into position and carefully lower to the ground.
Make sure there is a gap (approximately 1”) between the scale platform and the ramp.
Important Note: Make sure the scale platform does not contact the ramp because this
will cause weighing errors.
A pry bar will be helpful for adjusting the position of the ramp.

5. Place the second ramp into position.
Using a forklift, move the second ramp into position and carefully lower to the ground.
Make sure there is a gap (approximately 1”) between the scale platform and the ramp.
Important Note: Make sure the scale platform does not contact the ramp because this
will cause weighing errors.
A pry bar will be helpful for adjusting the position of the ramp.

6. Place the third ramp into position.
Using a forklift, move the third ramp into position and carefully lower to the ground.
Make sure there is a gap (approximately 1”) between the scale platform and the ramp.
Important Note: Make sure the scale platform does not contact the ramp because this
will cause weighing errors.
A pry bar will be helpful for adjusting the position of the ramp.

7. Place the last ramp into position.
Using a forklift, move the last ramp into position and carefully lower to the ground.
Make sure there is a gap (approximately 1”) between the scale platform and the ramp.
Important Note: Make sure the scale platform does not contact the ramp because this
will cause weighing errors.
A pry bar will be helpful for adjusting the position of the ramp.

8. Adjust all ramps as needed.
MAKE SURE that gaps are maintained between the two weighing decks and
between the ramps and the weighing decks.
A pry bar will be helpful for final positioning of the ramps.
9. Using a hammer drill and a ½” diameter bit, drill the holes and install the ½”
anchor bolts through the foot retaining plates and the ramps and tightly secure.
10. Position the indicator stand in a suitable location next to the scale.
11. Attach the digital indicator to the indicator stand using the screws provided.
12. Connect the two interface cables to the quick connects coming out of the digital
indicator.
13. Using a hammer drill and a ½” diameter bit, drill the holes and install the ½”
anchor bolts in the base of the indicator stand.
14. Plug the digital indicator into a standard 110 VAC power source and the
indicator will power up.
15. If the scale does not read zero, press the ZERO key on the indicator.
16. The system is ready for use.
Notes:
It is recommended that the two cables coming from the scale platforms to the digital
indicator be protected in some fashion (conduit etc.)
For information on how to operate the digital indicator, see the indicator manual
provided.
