Caution
Your Cleral onboard weighing system is
a tool. Learning to work with it can only
make it more efficient. Read this manual
before using your Kiload.
Weigh bridge (certified)
Acquire the weights needed to calibrate
using a certified weigh bridge (Platform
scale). Whenever possible, record the
weights while sitting on the weigh
bridge.
Pneumatic connections
Make sure that all air connections are
made according to the installation dia-
grams.
Lift Axles
Lift axles should always be in the UP
position while acquiring and recording
the weights in the Kiload. If the vehicle
is equipped with an automatic lift axle
activation device, then you must acquire
and record the weights while the lift axle
is engaged (touching the ground) for
both empty and heavy calibration. And
use the system with lift axle down.
Fuel
To enhance the performance of your
Kiload, fuel tanks must be full to acquire
and record the weights.
Air leaks
A leak in the pneumatic system will fal-
sify the pressure readings for calibra-
tion. Thus , you will end up with erratic
and false weight readings. You most
likely have a leak if the readings are not
stable while your vehicle is stationary. A
frequent start of the compressor is a
good indication of an air leak.
Recalibration
Recalibration is necessary if you have
adjusted or replaced a leveling valve or
if you’ve replaced a mechanical sensor,
air transducer, or flexmeter.
Slopes
A slightly sloped terrain will not affect
the accuracy of your scale, but the big-
ger the inclination the higher the error
margin. Learning to work with your
Cleral system will ultimately give you
better precision in these conditions.
Technical Support
For technical help, consult your local
authorized Cleral dealer.

Acquiring straight body truck weights 4X2 6X4 and 8X4
The first step in the calibration of a straight body truck is to weigh the steer-
ing axle (Channel A). The next step is to weigh the entire vehicle (Total
weight) Then determine the weight of the drive axle(s) (ChannelB) by doing
the math.
In the case of a vehicle with an auxiliary axle, liftable or fixed.

Advance the truck to weigh the steering
axle only to get the weight of channel
A.
Advance the vehicle to weigh the
steering and auxiliary axles then
subtract the weight of the steer axle.
You get the weight of channel B.
(A + B) -A) = B
Advance the entire vehicle on the
weighbridge then subtract the weight of
channels A and B from the Total weight.
You get the weight of channel C.
T - (A+B) = C
Total
- Channel A
= Channel B
Acquiring tractor-trailer weights
The first step is to weigh the tractor (Channel A) then weigh the entire rig
(Total). The difference between the total weight and the weight of channel A
is the weight of the semi-trailer (Channel B).
Acquiring additional trailer weight
Simply weigh the additional trailer alone (Channel C)
Acquiring steering axle weight (Instrumented or Virtual)
The first step is to determine the weight of the steering axle (Channel A or S)
and then weigh the tractor. The tractor weight minus the weight of the steer-
ing axle gives you the weight of the drive axle(s) (Channel B). The weight of
the trailer is acquired by weighing only the semi-trailer or by taking the total
weight of the rig and subtracting the total weight of the tractor.
If the steering axle is instrumented : CHANNEL A B C
If the steering axle is virtual : CHANNEL S A B
