5. Raise the tank out of the way and drill the appropriate size anchoring holes in the
support foundation.
6. Anchor the weigh module base plates to the foundation, using the instructions given
below for the appropriate type of foundation. Level each base plate to within +1/16
inch. All base plates must be in the same level plane within +1/8 inch.
For a Level Concrete Floor Foundation:
Lower the tank back onto the foundation so that the base plate mounting holes line up
with the holes that were drilled in the concrete. Insert a wedge-design expansion anchor
bolt into each base plate mounting hole (see Figure 6-4). Follow the anchor bolt
manufacturer’s instructions regarding the size and depth of holes and recommended
torque values.
