ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED)

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. Remove 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. Remove the four

pillar nuts on the studs and set aside for use

in step 3. 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 removed in step 2

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. To read the patient’s weight, observe the location of the indicator arrow built into each poise

weight. Read the value on the poise bar, closest to the indicator arrow.

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

the poise bars.

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

value. The total amount is the patient 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 11 for assembly instructions.

HEIGHT MEASUREMENT INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: Use caution when sliding height rod up and down. The rod should move

smoothly, do not move the rod in a jerking motion. Fold headpiece down when not in

use.

Note: A patient needs to be a minimum of 23-5/8” (60 cm) tall for height to be measured.

1. With the headpiece in the folded down

position, slide the headpiece up or down to

the estimated height of the patient. Then

raise the headpiece into its horizontal

position.

To lower height rod below 46 ⅜”, push the tab

at the top of the height rod and gently lower the

headpiece.

2. Ensure that the patient’s posture is upright,

and that the patient’s head is straight and

level. Slide the headpiece down until it rests

on the patient’s head.

3. Determine the patient’s height by reading

the value on the measuring strip nearest to

the line on the indicator, as shown on the

next page.
