▪ Optional height rod installation.
1. Remove the cardboard insert form the height rod.
2. Insert the two hex screws from the hardware pack into the holes in the front of
the column and tighten them with the wrench.
3. Place both height rod brackets over the two pre-installed hex head screws and
pull down.
4. Use the included wrench to tighten both hex head screws. Do not overtighten
the screws.
▪ To balance scale, move both poises to zero and turn balance screw to right or left until scale balances. For accurate weighing, place

▪ Height rod operating guide
1. Before the person steps onto the scale platform, the spoon should be rotated
to the horitzontal position, and raised well above the person's apparent height.
2. The person may now step onto the scale platform. The spoon should be held
horitzontal and above the person's head.
3. Carefully lower the spoon, while keeping it horitzontal, until it rests gently upon
the top of the person's head. If the person is shorter than 101.5 cm (3'4"), push
the latch to the right, while simultaneously pushing down on the spoon until the
spoon rests horitzontally upon the top of the person's head.
4. Read the height of the person as follows:
- If the back of the spoon points to the outer height rod, then it points to the
correct height.
- If the back of the spoon points to the inner height rod, then the correct height
is read at the top of the outer height rod (see "Read" arrow on the outer height
rod).
5. While holding the spoon horitzontally, raise the spoon above the person's
head. The person may now step off of the scale platform. Hold the spoon horit-
zontal until the person is clear of the height rod.
6. Rotate the spoon back to the vertical position and adjust the height rod back to
the rest position (i.e. the spoon should be locked in place within the inner height
rod and the inner rod should be at its lowest position).
