INSTALLATION
Choose the Scale Location
The scale should be installed in a location with a flat, level floor. Note that the weighing
platform will not sit completely against the floor. This will not affect the accuracy of the scale as
the weighing platform will settle to the floor when the patient is placed on the scale.
NOTE: The front load cells of the weighing platform will be off the floor.
The rear load cells must be sitting completely on the floor.
There should be 1/8” to 1/4” clearance
between the sides of the scale frame and the
floor. This clearance is required for the lift
mechanism to close completely. The included
shims can be used to raise the scale if there
are slight imperfections with the floor or wall
mount installation that sits the wall mount too
low and prevents the scale from closing
completely. If the wall mount is too high, the
rear load cells will not touch the floor when the
weighing platform is lowered. If the wall mount
is too high, it must be moved lower on the wall
or the scale will not function correctly.
NOTE: It may be necessary to remove any base molding/chair rail/wall guard or to
remove a section of the base molding/chair rail/wall guard to provide space to mount
the scale in a true vertical position. An alternative method would be to shim the wall
mount away from the wall to accommodate any base molding/chair rail/wall guard.
