Installation & Measurement
Once the gauge is powered on, press the operation keys to select the intended measurement mode according to the
use case, or measure directly with the factory default settings.
Step 1:
Select the appropriate test fixtures to install on the force gauge (to use self-made fixtures, please refer to the
relevant data on the next page).
Step 2:
When measuring, hold the force gauge firmly or install it on a suitable test machine. Apply the
force and the sensing rod in a straight line, so that measurements of load are accurate.
Step 3:
After measuring, remove the load, turn off the gauge, remove the fixtures, and then put the items back in
the toolbox after cleaning, to prepare for the next use.
