Positioning
Ensure the surface is flat in the area where the scale will be positioned, especially in the region of the load cell feet. Small
differences in height can be compensated by adjusting the load cell feet.
1. If an Indicator is included with the floor scale ensure that it is kept with the floor scale during positioning as there may
be an attached connecting cable.
2. With the floor scale positioned over the final work area, remove the 4 shipping feet (if installed).
3. Install the 4 load cell feet (if not already installed).
4. Lower the scale on to the final work area.
5. Check that the floor scale is level; check that the 4 feet are in contact with the floor; make adjustments by rotating the
nuts on the load cell feet. Use an external level.
6. Ensure that the floor scale's output cable does not become trapped or crushed during lifting or positioning.
Certifiable Installations
When used in certifiable applications at least one set of Foot Plates must be installed, (available separately). Foot Plates mount
around the feet of the Floor Scale and prevent movement of the scale. Installation of Floor Plates must be done before final
placement of the Floor Scale. Refer to the section on Accessories for Foot Plate installation.
Connecting an Indicator
For users who buy the whole Defender 3000 floor scale:
The connection has already been made and no additional installation is required. If you want to connect the base to another
indicator in the future, you can refer to the wiring code in Table 1.
For users who buy the Defender 3000 base:
When connecting the base to an indicator that does not have the matching connector, install the optional load cell cable adapter
(P/N 30429931 sold separately) to the indicator using the wiring codes in Table 2. Then attach the load cell cable to the cable
adapter.
In addition, as an alternate wiring method, you can also cut off the connector, strip the wires and attach them to the indicator
using the wiring codes in Table 2.
The extension cable accessory (P/N: 30429931) cannot be used if the scale will be used in a legal for trade or legally controlled
application, because there is no provision to seal the connection between the indicator and platform.
CAUTION: Ensure that the cable is protected against possible damage when routed to the Indicator.

Operating Limits
Although the floor scales have extremely rugged construction, certain load limits must not be exceeded. Depending on the type
of loading, the maximum safe static load, i.e. the maximum admissible loading, is shown in Table 2.
