Setting conster drum
The conster drum should be set after the measuring tape has been stretched in position.
Caution!
When winding the conster spring motor from the large drum to the small drum, do not remove your hand
from the large drum until the spring is completely wound.
You could be injured by the force of the spring.
Note!
To avoid inaccurate measurement, keep the following reminder:
Conster could lose its balance when it gets off the track of the large Conster drum or when the excessive force
is applied it creates an unbalanced torque.
Caution!
At the stage to wide the conster spring motor from the small drum to the large drum, do not leave your hand
from the large drum until the measuring tape is tensed finally.
1) As seen in the below fig., make sure that the screw is removed from the conster drum, then using the
screws and nuts, attach the conster onto the large conster drum as described in below fig.
2) Rotate the Conster drum to the direction indicated in the below fig.
3) Before securing the large conster drum, rotate the tape drum counter clockwise to tighten the tape.
4) When the tank is empty, roll the tape twice onto a small Conster drum and secure it with bolts. When the
fluid is in the tank, measure the surface level of the fluid and use the equation on the next page to figure
out the number of times the tape needs to be rolled. Roll the tape onto a large Conster drum exact number
of times it is required based on the calculation.
