You don’t put the weights “in” the pan. You take the wire bracket off the balance beam, without the pan, and look at it. There is a screw to separate it. In the bottom you will find lead shot put there at the factory for this very purpose.
Add or subtract the shot to make you scale level on your bench.
Might take a few try’s.
It dosn’t affect the balance beam just the zero. Scale is checked with check weights to make sure.
Works fine, fails safe, drains to the bilge. 😎
