HEIGHT ROD INSTRUCTIONS, CONT.
(Waist-High Models)
Operation
1. Before patient steps onto scale platform,
spoon should be rotated to horizontal
position, and raised well above patient's
apparent height.
2. Patient may now step onto scale platform.
Spoon should be held horizontal and above
patient's head.
3. Carefully lower spoon, keeping it
horizontal, until it rests gently on top of
patient's head. If patient is shorter than 3'
4" (101.5 cm), push latch to right while
simultaneously pushing down on spoon,
until the spoon rests horizontally on top of
patient's head.
4. Read height of patient as follows:
If back of spoon points to outer height
rod, then it points to correct height.
If back of spoon points to inner height
rod, then correct height is read at top of
outer height rod (see "Read" arrow on
outer height rod).
5. While holding spoon horizontally, raise spoon above patient's head. Patient may now
step off scale platform. Hold spoon horizontal until patient is clear of height rod.
6. Rotate spoon back to vertical position and adjust height rod back to rest position (i.e.
spoon should be locked in place within inner height rod and inner rod should be at its
lowest position).
