5. Record the value displayed on the indicator after the test weight is placed

in turn on each corner (directly over the load cell) without allowing the
weight to overhang the sides. Allow the scale to return to zero each time
to check for friction or other mechanical problems. Select the load cell
which has the lowest value as your reference point. This cell will not be
trimmed.

6. Replace the same test load over each cell in turn. Using the correspond-

ing potentiometer, trim each cell down to equal the reference load cell.
As corner corrections are somewhat interactive, check all cells again for
repeatability. If necessary, repeat steps 4 and 5.

7. Pull excess cable out of the enclosure.

8. Using a wrench, tighten the nut until the rubber touches the cable com-

pletely.

9. Then tighten the nut an additional 1/2 turn (180º). To be watertight, each

cord grip must be tightened so the rubber sleeve begins to protrude from
the hub.

10. Unused hubs must be properly plugged to prevent moisture entry. See

the Elec tron ic Replacement Parts and Components catalog to order extra
hole plugs.

11. Remove the desiccant from the plastic bag, and insert the des ic cant bag

into the junction box before closing. Inspect the desiccant during normal
service and change the desiccant as needed.

12. Replace the cover and tighten the cover screws in an alternating pattern to

15 in/lb to be certain the gasket is compressed equally in all locations.
