Adjusting the Checkweigher
Important Note:
In addition to the usual tools, a 1-meter spirit level is required for adjusting the check-
weigher.
§ Loosen the locknuts on the leveling feet (1).
§ Extend or retract the leveling feet until the level indicator on the weighing platform
of the checkweigher indicates a level position.
§ The air bubble must be centered within the circle on the level indicator.
§ Adjust the conveyor belt to the height of the conveyor line to the left and right, and level
it as shown (3). Adjust the height of both the feed and discharge ends of the conveyor.
In the process, adjust each of the four leveling feet by the same number of turns.
§ Check the adjustment using the spirit level (2).
§ Perform fine adjustments by turning the leveling feet until the equipment is completely
level.
§ Make sure each foot carries the same load.
§ Tighten the locknuts on the leveling feet.
§ Check the level indicator on the weighing platform again (4).
§ Check the distance between feed and discharge bands. The minimum distance should not
be less than 7 mm (5).
§ Make sure moving parts are not obstructed. Moving parts must not have contact with
other components.
