DC-190 Ultra Count Installation Manual
2.0 Installation
This section describes the procedure for the
installation and setup of the DC-190 counting scale.
2.1 Locking and Unlocking
Do not turn scale upside down. Always
work with scale on its side! Damage to
the load cell can occur if the scale is
turned upside down.
The DC-190 counting scale is delivered in a locked
position to prevent damage to the load cells during
shipment.
To prevent damage to the load cells,
scale must be locked prior to shipment.
The scale uses either one setscrew for the single-platform
scale or two setscrews for the dual-platform scale. The
setscrews are located on the bottom of the base and must
be removed before the scale is put into service. Use the
following procedure to unlock your DC-190 counting
scale.
1. Turn scale on side. Loosen locknut 1/4 turn (see
Figure 2-1).
Figure 2-1. Location of Load Cell Setscrews for Single- and
Dual-Platform Scales
2. Remove load cell setscrew (see Figure 2-2)
using the 2 mm hex wrench provided with
scale.
NOTE:
Keep locknut in the
approximate original position on the
setscrew to prevent damage to load
cell when reinstalling.
NOTE:
Beginning in 2003, setscrews with slotted heads
will replace the hex head types, and will no longer require
the 2mm hex wrench for removal.

3. Tape setscrews to the bottom of the scale or
store in a safe location for possible future use.
2.2 Setting Up
Place the scale on a solid, level surface away from
fans, breezes, and sources of electrical interference.
Level the scale by turning the four adjustable legs
located on the bottom of the scale while referencing
the bubble level located on the back of the scale (see
Figure 2-3).
NOTE:
To ensure greater scale stability, turn in all
four adjustable legs before leveling. Turn out
adjustable legs to level as needed.
