Mount the idlers to the scale carriage using the large V-bolts and bolting them to the scale carriage frame.

If the scale carriage requires the relocation of cross bracing directly under the scale. Any bracing that is removed
should be relocated or replaced as to not reduce the structural integrity of the conveyor. The minimum clearance
under the scale is 6.50" as measured from the top mounting surface. If the return conveyor belt is less than 6.50"
from the top of the frame, then the scale carriage will require extra shimming or the return idlers will require
relocation. The return side of the conveyor belt must not contact the bottom of the scale when the conveyor is
operating.
