ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)

Caution: It is recommended that the assembly be performed by two people. Use of a

chair is also recommended for the assembly process.

1.Carefully remove the scale platform and

pillar from the carton and place on a flat,

level, and dry surface. Locate the steel rod

at the base of the pillar. Cut the tie wrap that

holds the steel rod / finger pull loop to the

pillar.

2.Obtain a sturdy chair and place the top of

the pillar with the height rod side facing

down on the seat of the chair, as shown.

Place the platform/base perpendicular to the

platform with the front of the base resting on

the floor and the top of the platform/base

facing the top of the pillar. Align the four

studs on the bottom of the pillar with the four

holes in the top of the platform/base. Insert

the studs into into the platform/base.

Note: If a chair is not available it is

recommended that one person holds the

platform/base while another person handles

the pillar.

3.Access the underside of the scale base.

Obtain the four pillar nuts in the carton and

place onto the studs on the underside of the

scale base. Using the provided wrench,

tighten the pillar nuts to secure the pillar to

the base.

4.Grasp the finger pull loop on the end of the

steel rod and pull towards the lever

extension. Push the lever extension towards

the finger pull loop. Hook the steel rod to the

hole at the end of the lever extension.

Release the finger pull loop and ensure that

the steel rod and lever extension are hooked

together. Carefully position the scale to its

upright position. The scale is now

assembled. Refer to the next page to zero

balance the scale before first use.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Zero Balance Adjustment

Before first use, the scale needs to be zero balanced by following the instructions below. The scale

should also be checked and balanced periodically, particularly when moved.

Note: A flat head screwdriver is required.

1. Ensure that the scale is located on a hard, flat, and level surface. Step on and off scale several

times in order to align all internal parts.

2. Place both poise weights on the “0” value on both bars. The beam pointer should float gently up

and down, and not touch the top or bottom of the trig-loop.

3. If the beam pointer is not centered in the trig-loop opening, using a flat head screwdriver, rotate

the balance ball screw to correct the beam pointer. Turn the screw about ¼ turn forwards or

backwards and let poise bar settle. Based on which direction the poise bar moved turn ¼

forwards or backwards again and let poise bar settle until the pointer is centered in the trig loop.

Weighing Instructions

1. Set the upper and lower poise weights to indicate the patient’s approximate weight.

2. Have patient step onto the scale. Ensure they are positioned directly in the center of the

platform. Continue to adjust the upper and lower poise weights until the pointer is centered.

Note: It is not necessary for you to wait for the pointer to stop moving in order to read the correct

weight. As long as the pointer is moving equally within the trig-loop opening, the patient’s weight

can be determined.

3. Observe the location of the indicator arrow built into each poise weight. Read the value on the

poise bar, closest to the indicator arrow.

Note: For easy identification, pounds (lb) have black graduations on a silver background, located on

the upper portion of each poise bar; kilograms (kg) have silver graduations on a black

background, located on the lower portion of each poise bar.

4. Add the indicated reading of the upper poise value to the indicated reading of the lower poise

value. The total amount is the patient’s weight. See the example on the next page.

Note: To transport your scale, acquire the optional wheel bracket (Item # 55000). Please refer to the

“Transportation” section on page 9 for assembly instructions.

Note: To increase your scale’s capacity, acquire the optional counterweight set (Item # 55090).

Please refer to the “Counterweight Instructions” section on page 10.

TRANSPORTATION

A wheel bracket is included if purchased as model 402KLWH. If purchased as model 402KL an

optional wheel bracket can be purchased separately (Item #55000). Follow these steps to install

the wheel bracket:

Tools Required (not included)

Adjustable wrench or 10 mm wrench

1.Remove the mounting screws that attach the

clamping plate to the wheel bracket.

2.Gain access to the underside of the scale

base by carefully tipping the scale forward

until the pillar is resting on the floor. Position

the clamping plate inside the base by

aligning the holes in the clamping plate and

base.

3.Position the wheel bracket onto the base by

aligning the holes in the wheel bracket with

the holes in the clamping plate.

4.Insert the mounting screws through the

wheel bracket and into the clamping plate.

Using a wrench, tighten the mounting screws

to secure the wheel bracket to the base.

Carefully tip the scale to its upright position.

To transport the scale, tip the pillar backwards until the scale is resting on the wheel bracket.

Carefully move the scale to its new location.

COUNTERWEIGHT INSTRUCTIONS

In order to increase the scale’s capacity to a maximum value of 490 lb / 210

kg, the counterweight set (Item # 55090), must be acquired. If purchased as

model 402KLCW the set is included with the scale.

In order to employ the counterweight set, refer to the instructions

below. Contact technical support with any questions or concerns regarding

the use of the counterweight set.

Note: These instructions are for 402KL models with non-rotating poise bars. Use counterweight

55080 for pounds and counterweight 55085 for kilograms.

Counterweight Instructions for Weighing in Pounds (lb)

Note: The 100 lb (55080) counterweight is required when weighing a patient who is over 390

lbs.

Counterweight Instructions for Weighing a Patient 391 - 400 (lb)

1. When a patient weighs between 391 - 400 lb, place the lower poise weight at 250 lb.

2. Place the 100 lb (55080) counterweight on the 3rd notch from the left, between the 50 lb and

100 lb value.

3. Adjust the upper poise weight until the pointer is centered. The poise bar will center in the

trig-loop.

4. Read and record the weight. To read the patient’s weight, add the weight value indicated on

the upper and lower poise bars, as well as an additional 100 lb. See page 13 for a

counterweight conversion chart.
