• For accurate weighing, verify proper operation according to the procedure described in this
manual before each use.

SPECIFICATIONS
GENERAL
Health o meter’s Pro PlusTM Portable Wheelchair Scale Model 2450KL uses highly sophisticated
microprocessor technology. Each precision instrument is designed to provide accurate, reliable
and repeatable weight measurements and features that make the weighing process simple, fast
and convenient.
The scale is set up to use motion-sensing weighing technology, to determine the actual weight
of a moving patient. The scale may be changed to measure live weight; see page 13 for
instructions on changing the scale setting.
The weight can be display in pounds (decimals, fractions of a lb or lb/oz) or in kilograms. The
scale features low self-weight, width-adjustment mechanism to fit wheelchair various dimensions
and a display assembly stand.
The unit can be operated using its AC adapter or by 6-D cell batteries (not included).
