CAUTION AND WARNING
INTENDED USE
This Health o meter® Professional wheelchair scale is intended to be used in a professional medical
environment by trained medical staff. This product was designed to weigh patients who are safely seated in a
wheelchair, seated in the optional chair attachment or standing on the platform. Do not modify the product or
use it for anything other than its intended purpose.
To prevent patient/caregiver injury or damage to your scale, please follow the instructions in this
user manual very carefully.
Do not exceed the weight capacity specified for this scale.
For accurate weighing, this scale must be placed on a flat, stable surface.
For accurate weighing, verify before each use the proper operation according to the procedure
described in this manual.
Do not use in the presence of flammable or explosive materials.
If the scale becomes damaged, it should not be operated until properly serviced.
Do not transport the scale with a patient or object on the scale.
To prevent injury and damage to your scale, do not drop or mishandle scale, during use or transport.
Ensure that the AC adapter and scale do not come in contact with liquids, excessive temperature, or
excessive humidity.
Patient/caregiver safety
This scale is designed for static weighing of patients only. No scale should be used for patient transfer.
To prevent patient injury, the patient must be attended throughout the entire weighing event.
Ensure the ramp and platform are kept clean and dry. Exercise caution when rolling the wheelchair
onto and off of the scale.
When operating the scale with the AC adapter:
Operate this scale exclusively with the AC adapter that is provided (ADPT30). Use of an unspecified
adapter will void the warranty, and can pose a serious safety hazard.
Prior to using this scale, inspect the AC adapter cord for cracking / fraying, or for broken / bent plug
prongs.
Prior to using this scale, ensure that the AC adapter is plugged into an outlet with the rated voltage
appropriate for operation.
Ensure that the AC adapter outlet is wired to a circuit breaker or other protected power source.
Unplug the AC adapter, and carefully store both the adapter and adapter cord before moving the scale.
Operating this scale at voltages and frequencies other than specified can damage the equipment and
will void the warranty.
When operating the scale with batteries:
If the scale’s battery icon indicates that the batteries are low replace the batteries or switch to the AC
adapter as soon as possible.
When replacing / inserting batteries, be sure to use all new batteries.

General
This scale uses highly sophisticated microprocessor technology. Each precision scale is designed to
provide accurate, reliable, and repeatable weight measurements. In addition, each scale is
designed to provide the user with features that make the weighing process simple, fast, and
convenient.
This scale uses motion-sensing weighing technology in order to determine the actual weight of a
moving patient.
The 2500KL displays weight in pounds (lb) or kilograms (kg). Refer to Page 11 to learn more about
configuring the weight measuring unit setting. The 2500KG displays weight in kilograms only.
This scale features a pivoting display head for privacy and for easy operator reading. For easy
mobility, the scale has 2 built-in wheels. Each scale can be powered using an AC adapter
(ADPT30 included), or by 6 D batteries (not included).

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (CONT.)
1. Remove the scale platform/base from
the carton and place on a flat, level, and
dry surface. Locate the handrail and the
load cell cable protruding from the
bottom of the right side. Feed the load
cell cable into the large center hole of
the right handrail mounting hole in the
scale base.
2. Position the handrail over the left and
right mounting holes on the scale base.
Be sure not to pinch the cable. Place the
eight M8 washers (Part D) onto the eight
M8 1.25 x 20mm bolts (Part A) and insert
into the mounting holes on the scale
base. Using the included 5mm Allen
wrench, tighten the bolts.
3. Gently tip the scale forward or onto its
side to access the underside of the
platform.
Caution: Take care to hold the ramp down
when moving the scale - the ramp can flip
open when the scale is tipped forward.
Grasp the load cell cable protruding from
the bottom of the platform and feed it
through the protective metal shield.
4. Plug the load cell cable into the load cell
port located on the back of the platform.
Pull the excess cable through the top of
the center handrail.
5. Screw the four feet into the underside of
the platform. Completely hand tighten
the feet, then turn them back 1-½ full
turns. This allows for proper load cell
operation. Carefully tilt the scale back to
an upright position on the floor.
Warning: Do not drop scale, as this
can permanently damage the load
cells. Adjust the feet as needed to level
the scale. Ensure that the feet are not
completely tightened into the platform.
*** If you are assembling this scale to use with the optional seat attachment, stop
here and for the remaining instructions see the CHAIRACC manual included in
the seat assembly carton.***
For scales without chair attachments continue to the next page.
Ensure that the
spacer spring is on
the bolt of the foot
before inserting into
the platform.
Health o meter® Professional Scales recommends that assembly be performed by two
people.
Warning: Do not drop scale, as this can permanently damage the load cells.
Caution: Do not insert the batteries into the display head until it is mounted onto the scale.

screwdriver to tighten the screws.
8. Obtain the plastic bracket cover. Clip the
load cell cable into the divot in the middle
of the cover and align the cover over the
silver display support. Obtain the two
remaining M4 0.7 x 10mm screws (Part
B). Using a Phillips screwdriver, attach
the bracket cover over the silver display
bracket.
