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

2.6 Access Ramps
Access ramps for the RoughDeck AX are designed to bolt to the floor, with built-in mounting plates that attach to
the scale feet. When used with access ramps, side movement of the scale is automatically eliminated, and no other
mounting plates are necessary.
Access ramps can only be attached to the scale on one of the two scale sides that are perpendicular to the
longitudinal axis of the load cells. For example, the scale shown in Figure 2-4 could have an access ramp on the
left side as shown, and/or on the right side. The top and bottom sides, however, will not accept the ramp mounting
plates.
