1.0 Introduction
The Rice Lake Mechanical Physician Scale is ideal for use in health clinics and doctors’ practices for height and
weight measurement. The scale comes in a variety of configurations. Those configurations include:
• RL-MPS: Lb/kg model with height rod and rear wheels
• RL-MPS-10: Lb only model with height rod and rear wheels
• RL-MPS-20: Lb/kg model
The scale is durable, having a sturdy enameled steel body, removable slip resistant plastic cover and some
models come with a retractable aluminum height rod and rear wheels. These installation and operating
instructions will guide the user through basic instructions on pillar assembly, wheel installation, pillar height rod
installation, and the zero adjustment of the scale.
