Gallagher TW- Weigh Scale Quick Start Guide
Installing the loadbars
If using loadbars, follow these steps:
1. Select a weighing site that provides a solid, level and well drained surface.
2. Ensure the loadbars and pla orm are well secured and clear of any
obstruc ons.
3. Either bolt the loadbars to the concrete pad or locate them on studs set into
the concrete. It is important that the loadbars and pla orm sit fl at without
any rocking or twis ng to avoid weighing inaccuracies.
Note: It may be necessary to shim the loadbars or pla orm to ensure there
are no twis ng pressures within the pla orm. Weights should be evenly
distributed over the top of the weigh bars.
4. Connect the loadbar cables to the TW- .
A beep will sound indica ng a successful connec on/ disconnec on of the
loadbars.
WARNING – Do not weld the loadbars or any structure that they are
a ached to. Loadbars contain sensi ve electronic devices which will be
damaged by welding. Damage caused by welding will void warranty.
Position the TW- :
• clear of the pla orm to ensure it does not interfere with the fl ow of
animals during the weighing cycle
• within easy reach of the loadbar leads
• within easy reach of the operator (for manual weighing)
