GENERAL INFORMATION
1.1 Basic Operating Instructions
1. Turn on your tool, check the upper left of the display to see
if the battery symbol is showing. If the battery symbol is
showing (Fig.1A) then go to the "Rechargeable Battery Care and
Maintenance" section, on page 11. If there is no battery symbol
visible then the battery is charged.
2. Lightly clean the contact point.
3. Fasten the indicator into the appropriate holding device.
4. You can turn the indicator on by either pressing the ON/OFF
button or moving the spindle.
5. If applicable, pick the unit of measure, inch or millimeter by
pressing the IN/mm button. Note: standard metric indicators do
not have this function available.
6. Place the indicator perpendicular to the reference surface being
measured. Allow enough movement to be able to take a higher
or lower measurement. Note: This is one of many possible ways
to use the tool.
7. Zero Sequence: Zero the tool by pressing the ZERO Button. When
you press the ZERO button the display will show a dashed line
as seen in (Fig.1B). The dashed line will incrementally disappear
from left to right (Fig.1C); Make sure not to move the spindle
during this time. This is a visual reminder to wait for the tool to
zero out. This will happen each time the tool is zeroed, and takes
less than a second to complete.
8. Lift the spindle to remove the reference surface, and carefully
place the piece to be measured under the spindle making contact
with the surface. The value measured on the display will be the
difference between the reference and the measured piece.
9. The indicator can be turned off by pressing and holding the ON/
OFF button for 3 seconds.
Note: the unit will automatically enter sleep mode in 30 minutes, if left
