Unpacking

Hardy Bench scales are shipped fully assembled
and only require adjustment of the overload
stops and adjustment of the leveling feet. If there
is any damage to the shipping container or to the
scale, save all the packaging material and file a
report with the shipper.

Adjusting the
Mechanical Overload
Stops

There is a bolt in each corner of the frame that is
fully engaged for shipping protection. Each
should be adjusted to allow the load cell to
deflect to its maximum deflection distance, but
no further.
