English
To weigh a patient follow the instructions below:
1. Assemble the sling to the cow horn and press the ON/ZERO pad. The display will show 0.0
and the word HOLD will appear in the lower left hand corner. This step prepares the scale
for weighing. The sling can now be removed from the cow horn or cradle and placed around
the patient.
2. Place the sling around the patient ensuring the patient's feet are in the foot tray. Attach the
sling to cow horns and raise the patient so that they are in the standing position. They must
not be touching anything such as a chair or bed since this will cause an error in weighing.
3. The scale has been designed to turn itself off after 60 seconds to conserve battery life. To
restart the scale, push the ON/ZERO pad (once only). The display will show the start up screen
and then show the patient's weight. When the HOLD sign appears, the weight can be recorded.
NOTE: To restart the scale, be sure to push the ON/ZERO. If the scale starts and the pad is
pushed again, the scale may go to zero (0.0) and the patient's weight may be lost. This may
require the reweighing of the patient.
4. The RECALL feature is designed to retain in the memory the last stable weight over
10 kg/22lbs. To access this weight, the scale must be on. Press the RECALL pad. The display
will flash between "RECL" and the retained weight.
Maintenance
It is recommended that twice yearly inspections of the connections on the scale be scheduled
and performed to assure trouble free operation. Look for wear or any irregularities that may con-
tribute to scale failure.
If any wear or irregularity is seen DO NOT USE THE LIFT and contact Joerns Healthcare to
access the assembly.
