Use the following steps to install the scale base to the forklift.
1. Clip the three metal bands that are encircling the scale and component box on the backside of the pallet
(shown in Figure 2-2) and also remove the protective wood pieces which protect the sides of the scale.
2. Remove the wooden cover containing the indicator. It should be noted that there are two screws holding
the indicator to the shipping pallet. Back those two screws out to remove the indicator.
3. Loosen the bolts from the scale carriage assembly and back them out using a 3/4" socket wrench. The nuts
holding the bolts on the backside of the scale are welded onto the scale which requires the use of only one
socket wrench. This is what holds the scale in an upright position.
