Low Profile Weigh Scale
7
English
4. Operation
The Oxford scale has been designed and certified to weigh up to 227kg in 0.2 increments. It has
been certified to weigh in temperatures between 5˚C/35˚C.
To weigh a patient follow the instructions below:
1.
To power up the scale press and release the ON/ZERO button. The display will show either 0.0
or a random measurement.
2.
Attach the sling to the spreader bar/cradle that will be used to weigh the patient (this is
necessary so the weight of the sling is not included with the patient’s weight).
3.
Press and hold the ON/ZERO button for approximately 2 seconds until “ZERO” is displayed.
The scale will zero and is now ready to weigh a patient.
NOTE:
The upper right corner of the display will have an arrow point to the symbol “<0>”.
This indicates that the scale has been properly zeroed. No more than 35kg can be tared to zero.
4.
Remove the sling from the spreader bar/cradle and place the sling around/under the patient for
proper lifting.
5.
Reattach the sling to the spreader bar/cradle; raise the patient so that they are suspended
from the lift.
NOTE:
The patient must not be touching anything such as a chair or bed since this will cause
an error in weighing.
6.
Once the digital display has stabilized, record the weight and then lower the patient onto the
appropriate surface (i.e. bed, chair).
NOTE:
The upper right corner of the display will have an arrow pointing to a “
p
”. This
indicates that the weight being measured is stable.
7.
The scale has been programmed to turn off after 1 minute to conserve battery life. The zero
(TARE) will be maintained. To restart the scale prior to lowering the patient, push the ON/
ZERO pad momentarily (do not hold for >2 seconds or the scale will be zero under the weight
of the patient). The display will show the start up screen and then show the patient’s weight
NOTE:
To restart the scale, be sure to push the ON/ZERO. If the scale is “turned on” and the
pad is pushed again or pressed for more than 2 seconds, the scale may go to zero (0.0) and
the patient’s weight will be lost.
8.
The RECALL feature is designed to retain in the memory the last stable weight for a patient
NOTE:
Pressing the Recall button will display the last stable weight under any condition. For
example, if a patient is in the process of being weighed and the Recall button is pressed
the previous measurement taken will be displayed.
