3. Adjust the small and large 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.
4. Observe the location of the indicator arrow built into each poise weight. Read the value on the
poise bar, closest to the indicator arrow.
5. Add the indicated reading of the small poise value to the indicated reading of the large poise
value. The total amount is the patient’s weight.
