Align and level the idlers

Align and level the idlers properly by shimming the scale idler, the two approach idlers, and the
two retreat idlers, until they are within ± 0.8 mm (1/32") of each other. Check that the idlers are
centered and squared to the conveyor during the shimming process.
Note
Precise idler alignment is very important to achieve maximum accuracy of the weighing
system. Misaligned idlers will result in unwanted forces being applied on each idler in the
weighing area, causing calibration and measurement errors.
