UNLOADING
Slinging the Scale.
The Cardinal Mobile Livestock Scale can be slung using four straps connected from the lifting
lugs to a single point in the center. To obtain a lifting point closer to the center of gravity, straps
should be one to two 2 feet longer on the rear of the scale.
Strap length 8 x 13 = 6 ft. minimum
Strap length 8 x 18 = 9 ft. minimum
Lifting the Scale.
1. Lift the scale only in designated locations. The scale may be lifted by four straps and a
crane or loader.
IMPORTANT! Ensure the scale is in the transport mode when loading and transporting.
2. The scale can now be placed on a relatively flat location.
Removing the Lifting Fixture
After the scale has been placed in position, remove the lifting fixture from the inside of the scale
cage to prevent injury to livestock.
1. On the outside of the scale cage frame, remove the locknut from the bolt installed for
shipping.
2. Remove the lifting fixture and bolt from inside the scale cage.
3. Using the holes that run parallel to scale cage frame (90 degrees from where the bolt was
just removed), install the lifting fixture on the outside of the frame securing it with the bolt
and locknut.
