How to fix Health O Meter 450KL bar that doesn't move freely?
If the bar doesn't move freely, it might be sticking or need adjustment. Check if the pointer is touching the side of the trig loop as it moves; if it is, the beam may need realignment. Also, make sure the large and small poise weights are firmly against the shoulder of the beam. Adjust the balance ball screw by turning the screw at the left end of the bar.
Why doesn't the Health O Meter 450KL Scales beam move during weighing?
The beam might not move during weighing for a couple of reasons. First, the poise weight may be set higher than the patient's actual weight, so try resetting the weights to a lower value. Second, the steel rod connection may be improper. Make sure the steel rod is connected properly; refer to the Assembly Instructions.
What to do if Health O Meter 450KL Scales show questionable weight?
If you're getting a questionable weight, or the scale doesn't center equally in the trig loop when the poise weight is at “0”, it might be a balance issue. The balance ball must be adjusted so that the pointer rests in the center of the trig-loop when both poise weights are at “0”. Ensure the large and small poise weights are firmly against the shoulder of the beam. Turn the balance ball screw at the left end of the bar to adjust.
