Q. How is the Seca 216 mounted to a wall, and what tools do I need for

Q. Why don’t the numbers on my Seca 216 line up with a tape measure?
A. This is by design. The scale is offset slightly to account for the
thickness of the headpiece, which ensures accurate height readings. Refer to the
included installation guide for proper alignment. For help, contact us at csteam@medicaleshop.com
