Optional Height Rod Installation:

Instalacion de la Barra Medidora de Altura:
1. Remove the height rod from the box.
2. If not already installed, insert the two hex
head screws from the hardware pack into the
holes in the front of the column and tighten
them with the included wrench until the hex
heads are 1/8" from the column.
3. Place both height rod brackets over the two
pre-installed hex head screws and pull down.
4. Use the included wrench to tighten both hex
head screws. Do not overtighten the screws.
Height Rod Operating Guide:
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.
1. Remueva el tallímetro de la caja.
2. Si no estan instalados, coloque los tornillos
con cabezas hexagonales en los huecos al
frente de la columna y atornillelos con la
llave incluida en el paquete de partes, hasta
que sus cabezas quenden aproximadamente
1/8" de pulgada (3mm) de la columna.
3. Coloque los dos soportes de la barra
medidora en los tornillos ya instalados y tire
de los soportes hacia abajo.
4. Termine de atornillar sin apretarlos demasiado.
Como Usar La Barra Medidora:
1. Antes de subir a la plataforma, la cuchara
debe rotarse hacia la posicion horizontal y
colocarse a una altura superior a la que
aparenta la persona.
2. La persona ya puede subir a la plataforma y
la cuchara debe mantenerse horizontalmente
sobre la cabeza.
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 3' 4" (101.5 cm), 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 the back of the spoon points to the
outer height rod, then it points to the
correct height.
If the back of the spoon points to the inner
height rod, then the correct height is read
at the top of the outer height rod (see
“Read” arrow on the outer height rod).
5. While holding the spoon horizontally, 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).
3. Bajando la cuchara cuidadosa y
horizontalmente, deje que caiga suavemente
sobre la cabeza. Si la altura de la persona es
menos de 3 pies y 4 pulgadas (101.5 cm),
empuje el pestillo hacia la derecha al mismo
tiempo que empuja la cuchara hacia abajo
hasta que la cuchara descanse sobre la
cabeza de la persona.
4. Lea la altura de la persona de la siguiente
manera:
Si la parte posterior de la cuchara señala
hacia la barra medidora exterior, esta
indicando la altura correcta.
Si la parte posterior de la cuchara señala
hacia la barra medidora interior, entonces
la lectura correcta debe hacerse al tope de
la barra medidora exterior (note la flecha y
la palabra “Read” en la barra medidora
exterior).
5. Mientras mantiene la cuchara en la posicion
horizontal, levantela de la cabeza de la
persona. La persona ya puede bajarse de la
plataforma. Mantenga la cuchara
horizontalmente hasta que la persona haya
bajado de la balanza.
6. Rote la cuchara hacia la posicion vertical y
ajuste la barra medidora en su posicion de
descanso (la cuchara debe estar firme en su
lugar y dentro de la barra medidora interna y
esta debe estar en su posicion mas baja).
