Weighing calibration
The ED3 & ED4 SkidWeigh Plus calibration is automatic and is done by lifting empty and loaded forks (or any other
attachment such as paper clamp)
just above the ground
. MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE A KNOWN LOAD WEIGHT
AND KEEP IT NEARBY TO COMPLETE THE CALIBRATION.
For the best results use at least minimum calibration load test weight of 30 to 50% of maximum lifting capacity of the lift
truck. Use customer floor scale or find a known skid load weight within the operational facility.
Important:
If you want the system to show load weight in pounds, use the known load weight in pounds and enter that value
accordingly. The same would apply if you want the system to show load weight in kilograms. Use the known load weight
in kilograms and enter that value into the system accordingly.
Calibration starting point
Lower the empty forks to the ground. There should be no hydraulic pressure in lift hydraulic circuit.
- Turn ignition switch to on position ( electric lift trucks) and start the engine on combustion powered lift trucks
- LCD display will show software version and serial number for the moment and date and time will be displayed
Calibration
To initiate system calibration and LCD display must be showing date / time. Press and hold
F
key until LCD display
shows
ENTER FUNCTION.
Press number
0
and the LCD display will show
At this point lift empty forks just above the ground. You must activate lift control valve and lift the empty forks just above
the ground the same way that you would normally do when lifting loads. Do not slow down this lifting operational cycle,
do not tilt the load and do not lift to different heights. Lift empty forks just above the ground!
After few seconds the LCD display will show
