How to Operate the Height Rod
- Ensure that the scale's spoon is raised above the patient's height in a horizontal position.
- Ask the patient to step onto the platform.
- Keep the spoon horizontal and lower it until it rests atop the patient's head. Push the latch to the right while simultaneously pushing down the spoon if the patient is shorter than 3'4". Do this until the spoon rests on top of the patient's head (horizontally).
- Read the patient's height. If the spoon's back points to the outer height rod, the spoon is pointing to the correct height. If the spoon's back points to the inner height rod, the height can be read correctly by reading the top of the outer height rod. Find the outer height rod's "Read" arrow.
- Hold the spoon horizontally; then raise the spoon above the patient's head and hold.
- Ask the patient to step off the platform.
- Once the patient has stepped off the scale, rotate the spoon back into its original vertical position, then adjust the height rod back into its original resting position.
