Step 3.

Use wood or metal to create the templates.
The size of the template depends on the
size of the anchor bolts.

Step 4.

Mark a point on the template. Use the thru
hole center distances from the I/I diagram
and measure to another point on the tem-
plate which equals the center distance of
the thru holes on the base plate and make
another mark. Do this for each template.

Step 5.

Drill the thru holes the same size as the
base plate thru holes at each of the marks
you made on the templates.

Step 6.

Measure from where you want to center
the fixed-pin load point assembly’s top
plate on the vessel (or structural support
that will rest on the load point assemblies)
to the centers of where you want the cen-
ters of the top plates of the other load point
assemblies used in the weighing system.
Mark each center point location. Check the
typical mounting arrangements for load
point systems above.

Step 7.

Place the center of the Anchor Bolt pattern
at the exact centers as measured in Step 6.
You can use the templates to assist in
locating these center points.

Step 8.

When you place the Anchor Bolts into the
concrete foundation, slip the templates
over the anchor bolts so that the bolt center
distances will be the same as the base plate
thru holes of the load cell. You can leave
the templates on until after the concrete
drys or remove them when you think the
concrete has set to the point where the
anchor bolts won’t move.

Step 9.

Make sure to leave room to install the
jacking nuts and washers. You are going to
make the level adjustments with the jack-
ing nuts. (See Fig. 18)
