Figure 1. Height Rod Parts
After unpacking, visually inspect the height rod to ensure all components are included and undamaged. Contact
Rice Lake Weighing Systems and the shipper immediately if the height rod was damaged during shipping.
Assembling the Height Rod
The height rod must be attached to the Rice Lake 260-10-1 Digital Handrail Scale handrail center post using the
following steps.
1. Place the bracket insert into the bracket. The bracket insert is slightly more flared on one side and this must
be placed toward the height rod. If the bracket insert is placed incorrectly, there will be a gap between the
bracket insert and the outside edge of the bracket. When placed correctly, the outside edges of the bracket
and the bracket insert will fit snugly and be flush.

2. Insert the screw knobs through the holes in the bracket and the
bracket insert.
3. Working from the back of the scale, hold the height rod and hold the
bracket insert and screw knobs in place. While facing the handrail
center post, tilt the top edge of the height rod down and insert it
between the handrail and the left side of the handrail center post. Tilt
the top edge of the height rod up until the rod is vertical.
4. Position the bracket and the screw knobs to line up with the holes in
the back of the handrail center post.
5. Tighten the screw knobs until the bracket is rigid and does not move.

Verify the Height Rod
Verify the accuracy of the height rod by measuring an object of known height and adjust, if necessary, using the
following steps.
1. Hold the outer sleeve of the height rod to prevent it from dropping down
when the screws are loosened. Loosen the two large screws directly
behind the outer sleeve. Do not remove the screws.
2. Carefully move the outer sleeve of the height rod up or down until it
accurately measures the known height.
3. Tighten the two large screws (finger tight only). Do not over tighten. Do
not use power tools.
Figure 4. Height Rod Adjustment
Using the Height Rod
The height rod can measure heights from 25.5 to 83 inches (65 to 211 cm). The inner rod of the height rod slides
through the outer sleeve, raising and lowering the headpiece to easily accommodate people of different heights.
1. Raise the headpiece until it is perpendicular to the height
rod and snaps into place.

Inner Rod
Read line for less
than 55 inches
Read line for greater
than 55 inches
Outer Sleeve
2. Raise the inner rod of the height rod until the person can
easily stand without touching the headpiece.
3. Have the person step on the scale and stand underneath the
headpiece with their head level.
4. Lower the inner rod of the height rod until the headpiece
just touches the top of the person’s head.
5. For people shorter than 55 inches (139 cm) read the height
measurement at the red line underneath the headpiece. For
people taller than 55 inches (139 cm) read the height
measurement at the red line on the outer sleeve of the
height rod.
