Unpacking (APS10, APS160, APS15 and APS30) 

Remove the scale from the shipping carton.  Remove all packing material and then examine 
the scale to make certain there is no shipping damage.  Should damage be discovered contact 
the shipping company as soon as possible.  The packing material and shipping carton should 
be retained for possible examination by the shipping company.

supporting both the scale and any load to be placed on the scale.  It should not be in direct 
sunlight nor should it be subject to air flow from heating/cooling vents, fans or similar devices.  
Plug-in the 12VDC adapter to use scale.  Refer to Electrical Power section of this manual for 
more instruction.  The scale is now ready for use. 

 

Unpacking and Setup (APS70 and APS150) 

1.  Remove the scale display, hardware pack, power supply, scale cover and scale base 

assembly from the shipping carton.  Remove all packing material and then examine the 
scale to make certain there is no shipping damage.  Should damage be discovered contact 
the shipping company as soon as possible.  The packing material and shipping carton 
should be retained for possible examination by the shipping company. 

2.  Remove the four leveling feet from the hardware pack and install in each corner of the 

bottom of the scale base.  NOTE:  Leveling feet must be in place to operate the scale. 

3.  To mount the display on the scale base, use the two included mounting screws in the 

hardware pack.  Insert the screws through the two holes in the scale display bracket and 
attach the bracket to the scale base.  Route the cable into the scale and plug into scale 
display port (see interconnection section for port location and more information). 

4.  Determine where the scale is to be located.  It should be a smooth surface capable of 

supporting both the scale and any load to be placed on the scale.  It should not be in direct 
sunlight nor should it be subject to air flow from heating/cooling vents, fans or similar 
devices. 

5.  Plug-in 12VDC adapter to use scale.  Refer to Electrical Power section of this manual for 

more instruction. 

6.  The scale is now ready for use. 

 

Level Adjustment 

Place the scale in the chosen location and remove the stainless steel platform.  The platform 
can be removed by lifting upward on it removing it from the weighbridge.  Locate the small 
level indicator on the scale base to the right of the display and check to make certain that the 
scale is level.

If the level indicator does not show a level indication, the 
mounting feet should be adjusted to obtain a level 
condition.  To adjust a mounting foot, first loosen the lock 
nut then turn the mounting foot in the required direction to 
raise or lower that corner of the scale.  Once a level 
condition has been achieved, secure the mounting foot 
settings by tightening each of the lock nuts.  Replace the 
platform on the weighbridge.
