10 Dynamometer Installation Instructions
Introduction
2.2 Third-party shackles and attachments
Dillon supplies shackles and pins with the dynamometers that have been confirmed to
properly work with our mechanical dynamometers. Do not use shackles or shackle pins
that have not been qualified by Dillon. Lower profile non-machined spots can often be
observed and are normal.
If any type of accessory fitting is made for use with the Dillon Dynamometer, be sure to
machine this from high grade aircraft alloy (E4340 steel or equivalent) and heat treat it
in order to ensure maximum safety.
2.3 Maintenance and handling
The Dillon Dynamometer is a precision instrument and will provide many years of
dependable service if given reasonable care and suitable protection. Many firms make
it a regular practice to return Dynamometers to their distributors at 6 to 8 month
intervals (depending upon how much they are used) to have accuracy recertified. We
recommend this at least once a year. Consult with your Dillon distributor concerning
any questions you may have about recalibration intervals. Your area may require
periodic proof testing. Consult your local regulations.
Transport and store the dynamometer in the supplied storage case when not in use.
Dillon / Avery Weigh-Tronix is not responsible for failure of attachment fittings
furnished by others.
