11.3 Weighing the Patient

WARNING
The weight capacity is limited to the lowest rated capacity of any one of the components in use (e.g. Patient Lift, Sling or Scale). The patient's
weight MUST not exceed the lowest rated capacity of any component.
DO NOT operate key strokes with pointed objects (e.g. pencils, pens, fingernails, etc.) Otherwise damage to the key pad will result.
1. Attach sling straps to the hanger bar. For proper attachment instructions refer to Attaching Slings to the Lift on page 29.
 For improved accuracy on the 450 and 600 Reliant lifts, attach all sling straps to the center hooks on both sides of the hanger bar. However,
patient comfort may require a different configuration of sling straps.
2. Press the ON/OFF key.
 The display will indicate the last weight that was measured. The word "LOCK" will be seen in the display box.
The ZERO key is pressed in order to avoid capturing the weight of the sling and the hardware. If the ZERO key is not pressed the weight of
the sling and the weight of the hardware will be included in the weight displayed. NOT ZERO-ING OUT WILL GIVE A FALSE READING
OF THE USER'S TRUE WEIGHT.
3. Press the ZERO key. When the ZERO key is pushed the following will happen:
A. The scale will reset to zero and the word "ZERO" will appear in the display.
B. The lock function will then be turned off and the word "LOCK" will disappear from the display.

The scale is now active and continually updating the weight display.
4. Place the patient in the sling. For patient placement instructions refer to Operation on page 20.
5. Activate the lift mechanism to raise the patient until they are completely supported by the lift. For patient lifting instructions, refer to Lifting the
Patient on page 28.
6. Note the weight display.
7. When the weight display becomes stable press the LOCK button to lock the weight display. This will be indicated by the word "LOCK" appearing
in the display window.
