It is engineered using the latest technology to provide operating features and reliability unmatched for years to come. Please take the time to read this manual completely through before attempting to use the system. Although the MAS-P has been designed for easy set up and use, a thorough understanding of this manual will ensure that the user will receive the maximum benefit from the system. Please contact Rice Lake Weighing Systems at 800-472-6703 with any questions or concerns. This manual along with other documentation associated with the Stationary Livestock Scale (MAS-P) can be found on the Rice Lake Weighing Systems website at www.ricelake.com. Warranty information can be found on the website at www.ricelake.com/warranties 1.1 Overview The MAS-P shown below, consists of a sheeted animal cage suspended by four S-type load cells through a cam style on-board lift system. That sits on top of a portable base frame. In transport mode, the scale system is locked down, protecting the load cells from damage during transport. The scale is raised to the weigh mode using a lever and cam system. A digital indicator is connected to the scale to display the weight. The MAS-P can be used on any firm surface up to 7% grade (4-degree slope) and has a low deck height (6'') for easy step in. Figure 1-1. MAS-P Animal Scale Introduction 1 1.2 Safety Safety Symbol Definitions: DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous situation that, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury. Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided could result in death or serious injury, and WARNING includes hazards that are exposed when guards are removed. CAUTION Indicates a potentially hazardous situation that, if not avoided may result in minor or moderate injury. Indicates information about procedures that, if not observed, could result in damage to equipment or Important corruption to and loss of data. General Safety Do not operate or work on this equipment unless you have read and understand the instructions and warnings in this manual. Failure to follow the instructions or heed the warnings could result in injury or death. Contact any Rice Lake Weighing System dealer for replacement manuals. Proper care is your responsibility. WARNING Failure to heed may result in serious injury or death. Do not allow minors (children) or inexperienced persons to operate this unit. Do not operate without all shields and guards in place. Do not use for purposes other than weighing. Do not place fingers into slots or possible pinch points. Do not place hands, feet or any body part underneath the scale at any time. The scale could be lowered, crushing body parts. Do not use any load bearing component that is worn beyond 5% of the original dimension. Do not use this product if any of the components are cracked. Do not exceed the rated load limit of the unit. Do not make alterations or modifications to the unit. Do not remove or obscure warning labels. Keep hands, feet and loose clothing away from moving parts. Some procedures described in this manual require work inside the indicator enclosure. These procedures are to be performed by qualified service personnel only. Always be certain when lowering the scale that everyone is clear of the scale and any moving parts. Use two hands when gripping the lift handle to raise or lower the scale. Be sure the gates are latched or tied inward before transporting the scale. Ensure all three hitch lock pins are installed and the suspension stops are in the transport position before moving the scale. Important Animal Safety: Animal safety is a very serious issue and must be observed when handling any type of animal. The scale surface may become slippery during use; a build-up of manure on the scale may reduce traction. It is recommended that you take any necessary precautions to maintain an acceptable level of animal footing. Calibration: Do not calibrate this scale with a weight cart having a gross weight in excess of 25% of the total capacity of the scale (3750 lbs or 1,700 kg max for the MAS-P 8 x 13, 5000 lb or 2,268 kg max for MAS-P 8 x 18). This device is designed to be calibrated with single block weights spread evenly throughout the floor of the scale. Shift tests should not be done with more than 4,000 lb or 1,815 kg in a 4’ x 4’ area. Failure to comply with this warning will result in damage to the scale and void the warranty. 2 Rice Lake MAS-P Installation Manual 1.2.1 Safety Decals 1 3 2 7 6 Note 2 1 4 5 Items 2-4 are on units equipped with the 920i Weighcenter only. 8 3 4 5 Both Sides 6 Both Sides 7 Both 5 8 1 Side s 6 Both Sides Both Sides Figure 1-2.

Shipping Stub Figure 1-5. Shipping Stub 3. The scale can now be stored as is, or placed on a relatively flat location to be assembled. 1.3.3 Remove Lifting Fixture Lifting Fixture Remove the lifting fixture after the scale has been placed in position. 1. Remove the nylon locknut from the bolt installed for shipping. 2. Remove the lifting fixture from the bolt. 3. Reinstall the nut, retain the lifting fixture for future moves. Nylon Locknut Figure 1-6. Lifting Fixture Introduction 5 1.4 Lifting Assembled Scale Lift the scale only in designated locations (see Figure 1-7). The scale can be lifted by four straps and a crane or loader. Ensure the scale is in the transport mode (locked down – see Section 2.3 on page 8) when loading and transporting the scale. Install lifting fixtures to the four inside corners, see in Figure 1-6. Install cable hooks at each lifting fixture to lift scale. Figure 1-7. Lift Points 1.5 Indicator Package Removal The indicator is shrink wrapped for transportation. Be careful when removing to avoid damaging the indicator. Remove the indicator, then re-strap the walls if the scale is to be transported while packaged. 6 Rice Lake MAS-P Installation Manual 2.0 Installation As with any weighing equipment, the accuracy of the scale is dependent on the installation. The following points must be adhered to when installing the MAS-P Animal Scale. In all installations, the scale must be level to ensure proper operation. All MAS-P Animal Scales are equipped with a bubble level (located on top the base frame – see Figure 2-1). Ensure the bubble is fully inside the circle marked on the top of the level. 2.1 Permanent Installation Rice Lake Weighing Systems recommends a concrete foundation (piles or piers) for permanent installations. The foundation must be able to support the gross weight of the scale (scale dead weight plus scale capacity), and the piles or piers must be situated directly under the load cell stands (see shimming location in Figure 2-1). The foundation must not be subject to distortion or motion due to frost action. A qualified local professional should be consulted to recommend the proper size of foundation for the location. Foundation dimensional requirements are available from the dealer or Rice Lake Weighing Systems. Requirements may vary from one Weights and Measures jurisdiction to another, please contact the local office. 2.2 Portable Installation The MAS-P is ideal for use in many locations. Simply load and unload the scale as described in the Section 1.4 on page 6. Place the scale in as level a location as possible, and shim (with wood or metal shims) under the load cell stands to ensure the scale is level as described above. Please contact the local Weights and Measures office regarding the moving of the scale to ensure the validity of the certification. Scale Cable Bubble Level Figure 2-1. Shim/Load Cell Stand Locations Installation 7 2.3 Switching Modes 2.3.1 Convert to Weigh Mode 1. Place the scale in as level a location as possible. Ensure there are no obstructions under the deck that would affect weighing accuracy. Check the bubble level. Use shims or timbers to ensure the scale is as close to level as possible. Note The scale will weigh properly on any firm surface up to 7% grade (4-degree slope). 2. Inspect all four corners of the scale. Although the scale will weigh properly up to four degrees off level, individual corners of the scale should not be allowed to teeter. If any of the corners are not contacting the ground, place shims directly under the base frame, under the load cell stands, to prevent teetering (see Figure 2-1) . 3. Plug the indicator into the scale cable. The scale cable runs from the junction box (inside the base frame) to the indicator (see Figure 2-1). 4. Connect power to the indicator and switch ON. 5. USING BOTH HANDS, raise the platform to enable the scale (see Figure 2-2). The lift mechanism is an over center cam style lift and lock. If not disturbed, the scale will remain “locked” WARNING in the up position. Always grip lift handle with two hands when raising and lowering the scale. Cam levers point toward each other in weigh mode and away from each other in transport. See decals for Note direction of levers in each mode. 6. The scale is now ready to weigh. 8 Rice Lake MAS-P Installation Manual 2.3.2 Convert to Transport Mode When the scale is not in use, the scale should be locked down in transport mode to prevent any accidental overload of the weigh system. 1. USING BOTH HANDS disengage and lock the scale in transport mode by rotating all four cam levers counter clockwise into the fully locked position. The lift mechanism is an over center cam style lift and lock. If not disturbed, the scale will remain “locked” WARNING in the up position. Always grip lift handle with two hands when raising and lowering the scale. Cam levers point toward each other in weigh mode and away from each other in transport. See decals for Note direction of levers in each mode. 2. Turn off indicator. A stand alone indicator should be stored indoors when the scale is not in use. The weigh center should be closed and latched to prevent damage. Rotate Cam to raise scale into weigh position, see decal. Figure 2-2. Scale Lift 2.4 Cage Wall Assembly 2.4.1 Apply the Silicone Bead Before installing the walls, a silicone bead must be added. 1. Clean the upper flange of the floor and the lower wall flange with mineral spirits. 2. Apply a 1/8'' bead of silicone along the upper edge of the floor panel along the entire length as shown in Figure 2-3. Wall Insert Silicone Figure 2-3. Silicon Bead Installation 9 2.4.2 Install Walls WARNING Wall installation should be done with two people or an overhead crane. 1. Lift the first wall by using one sling in the center. Note The wall with the holes for the indicator is mounted on the left side. 2. Stand the wall vertical and place the inserts from the wall into the tubes of the cage floor. The more vertical the wall, the easier assembly will be. 3. Repeat for the opposite wall. 4. Install the top cross members. 5. Place the 3/4 x 3 1/2'' bolts through the cage wall and insert on the indicator side of the cage, head of bolt to the inside. A come-along from the top of the cross member to bottom of the cage corner post may be required. A ratchet Note strap is provided in hardware kit. When both walls are in place, ensure that they are perfectly square. Straps may need to be used to pull for squareness. 10 Rice Lake MAS-P Installation Manual 2.4.3 Install the Gate Note Install the gate with the hinge bolts on the opposite side of the scale.

Check entire scale for buildup of debris. Remove any debris found on, under or around the scale. 2. Check for dirt and debris in the load cell stands and clean accordingly. 3. Check all external cables and conduit for damage. Yearly (in addition to weekly and monthly maintenance) Disassemble each load cell location and grease all pins and eye bolts. 4.2 Scale Maintenance Procedures Cleaning Load Cell Stands It is very important to keep any excess debris from building up in the load cell stand. Lift scale and block it up, clean any dirt out of the load cell stands through the drain holes located at the bottom of the stand. Disassembly and Greasing This is very important to ensure the long life of your unit. Use the parts list drawings for item numbers. Note Use quality high-pressure grease. Avoid bending or twisting the load cell wires. 1. Remove the cell stand cover. 2. Remove the plug covers. Spacers Inner Cam Cam Handle Load Cell Pin 3. Remove the bolt which holds together the outer cam, load cell pin and inner cam. 4. While holding the cam handle, remove the outer cam. 5. Remove the load cell pin and spacers. The load cell assembly will be free on top and rest against the inside of the cell stand. 6. Remove the inner cam. Outer Cam Bolt Cell Stand Cover Load Cell Lower Retainer Plug Covers Right Cam Left Cam Left Cam Right Cam 7. Remove the lower retainer. 8.

Disassembly and Greasing 24 Rice Lake MAS-P Installation Manual 4.3 Troubleshooting Symptom The scale indicator will not power up. Probable Cause Blown in-line fuse Voltage is less than 11 volts. Indicator turns off or resets in the middle of a transaction. Low voltage to control panel. The weight reading on the indicator is unstable. The circuit board in the control panel may be wet or the junction box for the load cells may have moisture. A load cell cable may be pinched or damaged. The scale has a positive error when loading or a negative error when unloading. Mechanical binding problem on scale The scale has a negative error when loading or a positive error when unloading. Printer is not functioning – nothing is being printed at all. Moisture is present somewhere in the electrical system. Is the release light on the printer flashing? This could indicate a low voltage to the printer The print head may be jammed with paper The printer is printing unrecognizable characters. The printing on the ticket is faint or hard to read. Scale will not ZERO. The print head may be packed with dirt from operating in dusty conditions The power supply is excessively noisy. Incorrect dip switch settings The printer’s ink ribbon may need to be replaced. The printer head may be damaged. Weight on scale larger than the allowable ZERO window. Action Replace in-line fuse, RLWS part # 126870, the fuse holder is located near the battery or the indicator. Repair faulty electrical system. The RLWS panel requires at least 11 volts to operate properly. Check other electrical equipment that may be operating. Check for corrosion or damaged wiring. Measure voltage. Dry any areas that are contaminated with moisture. Check for leaks and reseal. Contact RLWS or a qualified dealer for support. Cutting the load cell cable will void the warranty. Special repair techniques are required. Check for debris around or under the scale. Check each load cell location for foreign material. Check all items that run from on the scale to off the scale. Check all gates or gathering panels for contact. Dry any areas that are contaminated with moisture. Check for leaks and reseal. The RLWS system requires at least 11 volts to operate properly. Is the truck running? Your truck may need to be running to supply enough power – OR – the truck may have a faulty electrical system. Remove the print head cover and ribbon. Check for bits of paper stuck in the paper feed mechanism. Remove the print head cover and ribbon. Blow out with air. If the printer is very dirty it may require service by a qualified technician. Contact RLWS, an in-line power filter may be necessary. Settings are 1,7,8 ON rest OFF Replace ribbon, RLWS part # 29583 Requires service by a qualified technician.

Place the scale in as level a location as possible. Ensure there are no obstructions under the deck. Check the bubble level. Use shims or timbers to ensure the scale is as close to level as possible. Plug the indicator into the scale cable. Connect power to the indicator and switch ON. Using both hands, raise the platform to enable the scale, ensure that all four corners of the scale are contacting the ground via shims if need be. The scale is now ready to weigh.
The MAS-P can be used on any firm surface up to 7% grade (4-degree slope).
Lift the scale and block it up. Clean any dirt out of the load cell stands through the drain holes located at the bottom of the stand.
You should grease the load cell pins and eye bolts yearly.
