1) First, insert the measuring tape (the end that does not have a small hole) into the tank from the Sheave
elbow directly above the tank. Meanwhile, the other end of the measuring tape (the ring shaped side with
a small hole) needs to go through the Sheave elbow just above the gauge head, and send it into the gauge
head.
2) Then, pull the measuring tape inside the tank. Before connecting it to the float cut off the tape leaving
about 1.5m in length.

3) Next, roll the tape inside the gauge head toward the direction of the arrow and roll the extra length of the
tape around the drum.
4) Sometimes, event such as fluid’s outflow causes the measuring tape to suddenly move.
Such movement may cause the tape to slip off the sprocket pins, and the measurement may show some
deviation from the most accurate value. In order to prevent this movement, there are two holders. After
finishing the taping, set the top part of the tape holders at approximately 2 mm from the surface of the
measuring tape.
