5 ASSEMBLING THE SCALE IMPORTANT! Before beginning with assembly of the scale, thoroughly read and understand this Assembly Guide. Review the illustration Figures 1a and 1b in the Appendix section. Become familiar with the basic configuration of the weighing deck and the identifying markings on the components. All figures containing the supporting illustrations and photos are located in the Appendix section in the back of this guide. 1) Attach the Six Feet to the Load Cells Locate the 2 Side Rails and the 6 load cell feet. Screw the feet into each of the 6 load cell locations on the underside of the Side Rails. Do not screw the feet all the way in; leave approx. 1 of exposed thread. Screw in the middle foot of each rail further than the two end feet, leaving approx. ¼ or less of exposed threads. NOTE: After the scale assembly is complete, the 4 corner feet are adjusted first, then the 2 middle feet are adjusted down as needed to solidly contact the floor. 2) Place Side Rails Onto Wood Blocks and Position as Required SYNOPSIS: The Left Side Rail and Right Side Rail are forklifted into position, resting temporarily on the wooden blocks that shipped with the palletized components. The weighing platforms will also rest on the wooden blocks during the assembly process. Place four wooden blocks into position where each side rail will be placed. Forklift the side rails into position, resting it on top of the blocks. Position the side rails parallel to each other. Space the rails 10 4 apart, allowing room for the two 10 ft. wide weighing platforms to be placed between the rails. Center the rails on the blocks to assure that the rails will be stable and that the weighing decks will also be well supported by the blocks during assembly. NOTE: The side rails are not interchangeable. Be sure to position them correctly. Refer to Fig. 1b for placement guidance. 3) Loosely Bolt the First Weighing Deck Onto the Side Rails SYNOPSIS: The first of the two weighing decks is forklifted into position and loosely bolted into place. 3

6 Forklift Weighing Deck #1 into position between the rails, and gently lower the deck down onto the wooden blocks. Be sure to accurately line up the front edge of the deck to the front edge of both side rails. Loosely bolt the weighing deck to the side rails. NOTE: Only use short bolts when bolting next to a load cell! Refer to Fig. 1c. 4) Route the Six Load Cell Cables Out the Left Side Rail Cable Exit Hole SYNOPSIS: Load cell cables in the Left Side Rail are fed out the cable exit hole. Load cell cables in the Right Side Rail are routed across the rear beam of the first weighing deck, and fed out through the Left Side Rail able exit hole. a) Route the Cables in Left Side Rail Out the Cable Exit Hole Unbundle the three load cell cables in the rail. Route the cables under the rail s top plates and feed the cables out the exit hole located in the center of the rail s outside wall. b) Route the Cables in the Right Side Rail Over to, and Through the Left Side Rail Cable Exit Hole Unbundle the three load cell cables in the rail. Route the cables under the rail s top plates and out the cable exit hole, then across the rear beam of the first weighing deck, being sure to feed the cables through the three cable guides on the beam. Feed all six cables out the cable exit hole on the outside wall of the Left Side Rail. NOTE: All cables need to have a 20 to 30 length protruding from the exit hole to allow for making connections into the junction box. 5) Loosely Bolt the Second Weighing Deck Onto the Side Rails SYNOPSIS: The second weighing deck is forklifted into position and loosely bolted into place Forklift the second weighing deck into position, with the top deck slightly overlapping the rear beam of the first weighing deck in order to mate up the bolt holes. Loosely bolt the weighing deck onto the side rails. NOTE: Only use short bolts when bolting next to a load cell! Refer to Fig. 1c. 6) Securely Bolt Down the Entire Weighing Deck/Side Rails Assembly Tighten down all bolts connecting the side rails to the weighing decks. Before fully tightening any bolts, lightly tighten the bolts located at far ends of the rails, and work 4

7 around the scale, alternating from side to side in order to gradually bring all components together in a proper fit. Before final tightening, loosely bolt down the top plate, then fully tighten after the rail/platform bolts have been secured. 7) Attach and Securely Fasten the Two Guard Rails Attach both guard rails using the bolts provided. Securely tighten all bolts. 8) Connect All Load Cell Cables Into the Junction Box Terminals SYNOPSIS: All load cell cables are numbered near the loose wire end of the cable. All terminal blocks in the junction box are numbered. Each cable connects to the corresponding terminal block. a) Feed Load Cell Cable #1 Into the Junction Box and Connect Wires to the #1 Terminal Block Feed the load cell wires through strain relief for the #1 terminal block. Following the wiring diagram in Fig. 7, connect the five wire leads to the terminal block. Securely tighten the strain relief collar to lock the cable into position. b) Feed Load Cell Cables 2 6 Into the Junction Box and Connect All Wires to the Terminal Blocks Following the procedure outlined above, connect all load cell cable wires to the junction box. 9) Connect the Digital Indicator Cable Lead Into the Junction Box Terminal SYNOPSIS: The digital indicator cable has loose wires on one end for connecting into the junction box. The other end of the cable has a threaded connector that mates to the short cable attached to the digital indicator. Feed the digital indicator cable wires through the strain relief for the terminal block. Following the wiring diagram in Fig. 7, connect the five wire leads to the terminal block. Securely tighten the strain relief collar to lock the cable into position. 10) Mount the Junction Box Using the provided screws, mount the junction box to Side Rail #1 as shown in Fig. 8. Push all excess slack cable back into the exit hole as shown in Fig. 8. Using the provided screws, securely fasten the junction box cover onto the box. 5

8 11) Attach the Ramps to the Weighing Base SYNOPSIS: The ramps are placed into position at the end of the weighing deck, then the weighing deck is lowered to the floor, one corner at a time. The two load cell feet at the end of the weighing deck fit into holes in the ramp tabs, as shown in Fig. 9. a) ALIGN THE FIRST RAMP: Using a forklift, position the ramp near the weighing deck so that the large tabs are aligned with the feet located at the end of the weighing deck, as shown in Fig. 10. b) LOWER ONE CORNER OF THE WEIGHING DECK INTO THE LOAD CELL FOOT HOLE: Using a 5 lb rubber mallet, strike the handle of the ramp to move the ramp into position directly under the load cell foot (alternatively, a long pry bar may be used to move the ramp into final position). Using a forklift, lift the end of the weighing deck enough to remove the end block(s), then slowly lower the deck into position, making sure the load cell foot fits into the foot hole in the ramp tab. NOTE: If required, rearrange the blocks in a way so as each corner of the weighing deck can be individually lowered into the ramp tab foot holes. c) LOWER THE OTHER CORNER OF THE WEIGHING DECK INTO THE REMAINING LOAD CELL FOOT HOLE OF THE SAME RAMP: Follow the instructions in Step b above to complete the attachment of the ramp to the weighing deck. d) FOLLOW STEPS A THROUGH C ABOVE TO ATTACH THE SECOND RAMP TO THE WEIGHING DECK. After both ramps are attached, the weighing deck will be fully lowered to the floor. 12) Adjust the Load Cell Feet to Assure the Weighing Deck is Level and Stable a) ADJUST THE FOUR CORNER FEET: Using a 27 mm wrench, adjust the corner feet as needed to obtain a level weighing deck. Be sure the weighing deck does not rock or tilt from corner to corner. b) ADJUST THE TWO MIDDLE FEET: Using a 27 mm wrench, adjust the two middle feet downward until a solid contact is made with the floor. 13) Connect the Digital Indicator and Check Scale Operation a) MOUNT THE INDICATOR BRACKET TO THE INDICATOR STAND: Using the provided bolts, bolt the indicator bracket to the indicator stand. Place the stand in the desired location of use. b) CONNECT THE DIGITAL INDICATOR TO THE WEIGHING DECK: Connect the digital indicator cable lead from the junction box to the short cable lead from the digital indicator. Plug the digital indicator in to 110VAC. Check operation of the scale and digital indicator. 6

9 14) Bolt Down Both Ramps to the Concrete Floor Using a hammer drill, drill 3/4 holes into the concrete for anchoring the floor mounting tabs to the floor. Use the provided concrete anchors and securely fasten all four ramps tabs to the floor. 15) Bolt Down the Four Deck Top Access Panels Securely bolt down the access panels, lightly tightening the four corner bolts on the panel, then working from side to side tightening the other bolts. Secrely tighten all bolts. 16) Bolt Down the Indicator Stand to the Concrete Floor Using a hammer drill, drill four 1/2 holes into the concrete for anchoring the indicator stand to the floor. Use the provided concrete anchors and securely fasten the indicator stand to the floor. Assembly of the scale is now complete, as shown in Fig
