1.2 Considerations Before Installation
1.2.1 Forklift Derating
1.2.1.1 Capacity Reduction Calculation
The CLS fits most typical forklifts, but there are considerations that must be taken into account prior to installation. Due to the
extra weight of the CLS, the net lifting capacity of the forklift is reduced by approximately 10%. Use the formula below to
calculate the amount to down-rate the lifting capacity and determine the net capacity of the forklift.
Figure 1-1. CLS Capacity Formula
1.2.1.2 CLS Classes and ID Plates
An updated ID plate on the forklift stating the new lifting capacity and center of gravity information is required per OSHA rules
and regulations.
Figure 1-2. Forklift CLS Reference
A = Truck Basic Capacity in pounds B = Inches from front wheel center line to fork face
C = Inches from face to truck rating point (usually 24) D = Weight of scale in pounds
E = Inches from front wheel center line to carriage face F = Inches from carriage face to scale horizontal center of gravity (HCG)
G = J + K (inches from carriage face to rear face of load H = Inches from fork face to new truck rating point
J = Thickness of fork K = Thickness of scale

1.2.2 Forklift Battery and CLS Installation
Take into consideration that the indicator power source is connected directly to the battery of the forklift. Most
typical is 12 volts for propane, gas and diesel forklifts.
12 volt systems must have a negative ground, ensure the forklift has a negative ground electrical system. The
CLS cannot operate on a positive ground forklift. Refer to the forklift manual to verify grounding requirements.
Standard CLS scales use 9-36 V power supply for use on 12 V batteries. Install the following for electric system forklifts:
PN 166162 – DC-DC Converter, CLS
PN 166161 – Power Line Filter, CLS (for static protection)
1.3 Power/Communication Box Introduction
The Power/Communication box transmits data between the scale and the hand-held device. The Mac ID label is used to pair
the CLS Bluetooth® interface with the hand-held device supplied by the customer.

1.4 Power/Communication Connection to Junction Box
The Power/Communication box receives data from the junction box through the Interface Cable.

1.5 iQube2TM CLS Junction Box
The latest CLS Series scales includes an updated version of the iQube2 junction box. This design is built to allow service
technicians to easily service the unit in the field. Below is an overview of the new features and functions.
It also replaces the older style junction boxes, originally used in the CLS Series scales.
Figure 1-5. iQube2 Junction Box
** Allows for connection to Revolution from the front of the forklift, using Type B USB micro connector. A built-in USB driver
allows easy interface capabilities. Simply connect to Revolution and select the new USB COM port generated. This can help
eliminate the coiled cable and communication/power box. If updating firmware, switch to a USB Micro A connector.

Scale Base Installation

2.0 Scale Base Installation
This section describes procedures for installing the Cargo Lift Scale base.
Take all necessary safety precautions when installing the scale carriage, including wearing safety shoes and
protective eyewear, and using the proper tools, which are listed in Section 2.4.
The Cargo Lift scale is shipped from the factory with the scale already calibrated and all settings stored in the junction box.
Minimal adjustments and calibration might be necessary once the scale is installed onto the forklift. Those calibration steps are
contained in Section 5.3 on page 39.
2.1 Before Installation
Before installing the CLS on a forklift, the forklift should be in good operating condition for optimal weighing accuracy. Look for
the following items prior to installing the CLS onto a forklift:
• Inspect the forks for any damage
• Check the locking pin on the forks for proper function
• Check and adjust the lift chain so the heel of the forks have 1/2 to 1 inch of clearance from the floor when the carriage is
down and the mast is vertical
• The slot for the center pin should be clear of grease and debris
• The top cleats of the forklift rest on the top of the scale and should remain clear of grease and debris that could alter the
scale’s performance
The power/communication box will be connected directly to the battery of the forklift. The CLS scale works with 9-36 VDC
power source.
All systems must have a negative ground.
2.2 Recommended Tools for Installation
Ensure the forklift meets the qualifications specified in Section 1.2 on page 2. Use the following tools to install onto the forklift:
Tool Size Purpose of Tool
Allen wrench 4 mm For service only, to remove junction box
Crescent wrench 2'' adjustable For adjusting the shim bolts and jam nuts
Tin snips or band cutters NA To cut the plastic banding surrounding the CLS while on the pallet
Torque wrench w/ 1/2" Allen 1/2'' To tighten the cleats to 125 ft-lb
Electric grinder For grinding the center pin if necessary and the mounting bolts
Wrench 7/16'' To connect power/communication box to mounting plates
Wrench & socket 9/16'' To connect mounting plates to forklift carriage
USB Type A to Type B Cable 6' Use with laptop for access to Revolution software for diagnostics, calibration and displayed weight
Level NA To perform angle zero calibration
