HEIGHT ROD OPERATION
Before patient steps onto scale
platform, spoon should be rotated to
horizontal position, and raised well
above patient’s height.
Patient may now step onto scale
platform. Spoon should be held
horizontal and above patient’s head.
Carefully lower spoon, while keeping
it horizontal, until it rests gently on top
of patient’s head. For shorter
patients, push latch to right while
simultaneously pushing down on
spoon, until the spoon rests
horizontally on top of patient’s head.
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).
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.
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).
