Safety Warnings

IMPORTANT: Review safety, warning, operation and configuration information in

RL101 Operation (PN 220243) and Technical manuals (220242) before operating

the RL101 scale.

WARNING: Read manuals prior to the system installation to understand

configuration and calibration.

WARNING: Do not exceed weight capacity listed on scale.

WARNING: Never move the sample (load) with scale inline. The RL101 scale is a

lift and weigh device designed to capture static weighments.

WARNING: Ensure lifting device is capable of lifting RL101 scale and load without

exceeding the weight limit.

Battery Preparation

RL101 Scale Batteries

The RL101 scale comes with four AA batteries installed. A battery discharge guard

must be removed to use the scale.

1. Position the RL101 scale with the back facing up.

2. Press the two retention tabs on the battery tray while pulling away to remove

from the RL101 scale.

3. Remove the battery discharge guard and discard.

4. Ensure batteries are inserted in tray with correct polarity (illustrated in battery

tray).

5. Reinsert battery tray into scale ensuring it securely locks into place.

RL101 Below-the-Hook Scale

Preliminary Tasks

Before initial use:

• Read safety and operation information in the RL101 Operator manual (220243).

• Tighten nuts on shackles.

• Ensure cotter pins in shackles are secure.

Tips

Best Practices

• The RL101 Scale arrives calibrated from the factory. To recalibrate, only use

certified test weights.

• Power on electronics before installation to ensure basic functionality.

Troubleshooting

• Consult system schematic for wiring and check connections.

• Ensure proper grounding of all components.

• If experiencing communication errors:

• Evaluate RF distance and antenna locations.

• Locate sources of competing radio transmissions. For example, crane remotes,

Wi-Fi/Bluetooth® devices and other RF weighing systems.

• Record all RL101 scale IDs and serial numbers before contacting customer

support.
