Section 2: Installation Base Assembly NOTE: The following descriptions refer to “Key#” (#4, etc.) to describe parts. Use the parts list and Key# in the list to identify all such parts. 1. Place the Platform Sub Assembly on the floor upside-down, preferably on 2x4 blocks to raise it up off the floor, if possible. 2. Remove the cotter pins and washers from one side of the Axle Rod (#19). • Axle assembly includes an affixed cotter pin (#17), a 5” wheel (#16), and then a flat washer (#18). 3.
Section 2: Installation Base Assembly, Continued 5. Insert a cotter pin (#17) through the Axle Rod. • Using needle nose pliers, bend back both haves of the cotter pin to secure the wheel assembly. 6. Repeat steps two through four (2-4) for the second axle. 7. Center the axles in the base, and then insert the four locking screws (#15) into each of the tapped holes in the bottom of the base. • Located directly under the axle holes 8. Tighten the locking screws, and then secure the Lock Nuts (#14). 9.
Section 2: Installation Pillar and Beam Assembly 1. Thread the two (2) Pillar Support Rods (#1) into the tapped holes provided in the base. • The end with the longer thread should fit into the platform (about 1⁄2 inch). 2. Place the Pillar (#2) down over the support rods with the pillar cut-outs facing the right and left of the platform. 3. Insert the Steelyard Rod (#35) down through the pillar. • The bent hook on top; the loose Swivel Hook on the bottom.
Section 2: Installation Pillar and Beam Assembly, Continued 5. Place the cast iron Beam Support (#39) over the Steelyard Rod with the hook facing to the right (when facing the scale platform). 6. Insert the Beam Cap (#45) onto the pillar rods. • The long side will be to the right. 7. Place Washers over the pillar rods, and then screw on the two (2) Acorn Nuts (#44). • Hand-tighten only, at this time. 8. On the butt end on Beam Assembly, hook the bottom Load Loop to the Steelyard Rod.
Section 2: Installation Zeroing the Beam Note: Check that the weighing platform "floats" on the levers' pivots and bearings and does not bind or set to one side. The platform should return to a centered position if moved to any position then released. 1. Unlock the Beam Lock Loop to allow the beam to balance. • The beam should move up and down freely coming to rest in the center of the trig lock opening. 2. Balance the beam by adjusting the balance ball at the butt end of the beam, using a screwdriver.
Section 2: Installation Troubleshooting If the beam will not balance using the balance ball, check the following: • Is the poise is at 0 (zero), and is the poise screw is snug? • Is the platform free and “floating”? • Is the beam load rod connected properly on both ends? • Is something under the platform inhibiting the levers (floor debris)? • Are there any weights on the counterpoise hanger, and is it on the Tip Loop? • Is the beam hanging from the middle loop? • Is the Beam Lock Loop (#43) o
