Random LTL Rants (all are welcomed)

Just pull on a scale, tell em what you want to do. Tell em which platforms you want to scale, and make sure you scale each axle individually. Pull forward, walk back to the speaker and tell them which ones to do now. I'm guessing you need to do the tractor first, then each trailer one at a time, but I've never done doubles, just spread axles.

 

How To Weigh | CAT Scale

My mistake. You do it in two weighs.

 

I've been spoiled by easy access to yard scales. The few times I've asked the clerks how they weigh doubles, I get the 1000 yard stare into nothing.

 

Pull steer axel on scale
Pull drives so only they are on scale
Pull first trailer axel so it is only on scale
Pull dolly axel just on so its the only axel
The same the rest of the way back with 2 trailer and third.

 

Weird. Yesterday it was showing up full size for me.

 

Fixed and shrunk...
