Adjusting the Checking 

Once assembled, verify that the scale is centered in the foundation. If it is not, make the appropriate adjust

-

ments. With the modules bolted together, adjust the end bumper checking and the side checking stands. The 

poly bumpers on the end wall, and the bolt heads on the side checking stands should be approximately 1/16”-

1/8” away from the end wall and scale structure respectively.

Replacing the Dummy Load Cell Stands

Once the end and side checking has been adjusted the dummy load cell stands will need to be removed and 

replaced with the actual load cells. It is imperative that the checking has been adjusted to minimize the lateral 
movement of the weighbridges when replacing the stands.

Prior to lifting a module / weighbridge place safety blocking under one of the main weighbridge  

structural beams with approximately 1/2” gap between the block and bottom of the beam. This will stop 

the module from falling to the foundation in the case of a stand or load cell falling over.

Starting with a load cell dummy stand in the first end module, use a hydraulic jack to lift the weighbridge in a 

location close to the stand being removed. Place the jack under the outermost beam for the lifting location.

Note that on concrete deck scales that have already been poured, it is recommended to use two hydraulic 

jacks placed on opposite sides of the module to lift the module in a level position. Lifting the module unevenly, 

mid-section or between load cell locations will cause cracks in the concrete.
