Do not store or operate the gauge in temperatures outside of the specified ranges.
Do not install the gauge near high temperature surfaces or objects which may cause it to

The gauge contains delicate optical and electronic assemblies and must never be dropped or
struck by other objects.
Only install the gauge on its mounting/stand when all machining, assembly and transportation
of the mounting/stand has been completed.
Do NOT strike, move or perform machining operations on the mounting/stand with the gauge
installed.
Damage incurred by the gauge as a result of impact, mechanical shock or rough handling is
NOT covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

The gauge contains no user serviceable components.
Loosening the gauge screws or removing its cover will invalidate the gauge warranty.
