HEIGHT ROD INSTRUCTIONS, CONT.
(Eye-Level Models)
1. Before the person steps onto the scale platform, the spoon should be rotated to the
horizontal 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 horizontal
and above the person’s head.
3. Carefully lower the spoon, while keeping it horizontal, until it rests gently upon the top of
the person’s head. If the person is shorter than 101.5 cm/3' 4", then push the latch to
the right, while simultaneously pushing down on the spoon, until the spoon rests
horizontally upon the top of the person’s head.
4. Read the height of the person 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 the top of
outer height rod (see “READ” arrow on outer height rod).
5. While holding the spoon horizontal, raise the spoon above the person’s head. The
person may now step off of the scale platform. Hold the spoon horizontal 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).
CAUTION:
Do not raise or lower Height Rod by the spoon tip!
