Installation
Note:
Mount the indicator and secure the cables so they cannot be
damaged by stock.
1
Install load bars under the platform on a firm, level surface (see
Load Bar User Manual).
2
Mount the indicator bracket onto a flat surface (timber rails,
concrete) or pipe-work.
3
Remove the dust caps on the load bar connectors. Connect the
load bar cables to the indicator.
The indicator automatically calibrates with Tru-Test load bars.
4
If required, connect the indicator to the mains power using the
power/communication cable and the power adaptor.
Tip:
Connect the dust caps together to keep out dirt and moisture. Dust
caps should remain in place at all times when the indicator is not in use.
