I am trying to figure out why my trusty old scale has become not level by quite a bit. I usually just trust but verify my RCBS chargemaster for most loading but am working on some loads that I want to be very close and drug out my old rcbs 10-10.
It will not level to zero without lifting the right side up about 1/2 inch and the level screw on left all the way up. I have a couple pictures to show you what I mean.
The scale never used to need this kind of adjustment, it had always been near level and was adjustable with the leveling screw. The workbench is near level, not perfect but no where near this out of level.
I have read a lot on the scale hear on the forum, I am thinking I can correct this by taking apart the pan holder and adding weight to get it level again, do you think this is the correct procedure? I am wondering if the added weight is going to throw off the scale at other weights other than zero.
Any of your thoughts would be appreciated, Thanks Keith
