REMOTE HEAD MOUNTING
The remote head can be mounted to a wall up to 6 feet from the base or it can be mounted on the display bracket (included) for
placement on a table up to 6 feet from the base.
To Mount on Wall
1. Use the above diagram to locate the position of the screws at the desired height.
2. Drill two holes 1 13/16” apart.
3. Screw the two screws into the wall, let the screw heads protrude 1/8” from the wall.
Extending the screw heads further could damage the scale.
4. Align the holes on the back of the remote display with the screws. The remote head
should slide onto the screw heads firmly and securely.
To Mount on Display Bracket
1. While holding Part A (Stand) as illustrated in the figure to the left, slide the center tab of
Part B (Support) up and under the tab on the back of the Stand.
2. Align the Stand and the Support so the tab on the rear of the Support can slide beneath
the tab on the rear of the Stand. The holes on the Stand and Support should line up.
3. Insert the two small screws (included) into the two holes in the front of the Stand and
through the holes in the Support.
4. Using a Phillips screwdriver, tighten the screws to secure the Stand to the Support.
5. Slide the two protruding knobs on the bracket into the two holes in the back of the
remote display. The display bracket is now ready for use.
