Cautions of Transportation
Don’t try to move the tester by yourself. Or it may damage the tester and bring about personnel injury.
Therefore, the tester shall be moved by two or more skilled personals.
During transportation, the axial line between the indenter and the screw rod shall not be more than 15
º
slanted.
During transportation, it is prohibited to contact all the other parts and faces except the outer surface so as not
to affect the accuracy.
The tester should be gently handled to prevent any collision or impact.

Installation and Commissioning
Before installation, get ready the spanner, level meter and larger anvil.
1.
Place the tester on the prefabricated work table in the way that the screw rod falls into the hole.
2.
Remove cushion block of indenter (Fig-6).
3.
Removing wood cushion of the indenter: Turn the hand wheel anticlockwise so that the screw rod descends
and the wood cushion can be removed therein. Should the screw rod fail to descend when the hand wheel
is turned, to the contrary that the hand wheel rises up with screw rod and the wood cushion can’t be
removed, it is because the screw rod and its seating are bonded together during transportation. In this case,
turn hand wheel anticlockwise to rise around 20mm, press the handle by force to disengage the screw rod
from its seating.
4.
Remove the wood wedges on the larger lever (Fig-7).
