Measuring
The area to be measured on the work piece must be properly cleaned
in order to avoid that the tracer getting dirty. If the roughness is measured
manually, the tracer is laid onto the work piece and held steadily. The green
indicator LED on the instrument must be on, confirming that the tracer and
the instrument are in condition ready to measure. After pressing the start key,
the measuring procedure is effected automatically. Shortly after, the measuring
values can be read on the LCD-display and printed out.
Pressing any key can
interrupt a current measuring operation and bring the tracer to a halt.
After a few seconds the trace rgo back to its starting position again.

Tracer
Remove the supporting shoe by using the enclosed hexagon key or by means of
the knurled nut (type VHF).
Insert the tracer into the traverse unit so, that the point looks to the prism
Warning: By no means is the tracer be inserted forcefully;
it must be held with the utmost care at its largest diameter!
If manual measurements are to be effected, remount the supporting shoe to the
traverse unit once again. The position of the supporting shoe is correctly reached
when the work piece is supported on its whole length by the traversing unit
with supporting shoe. If the measuring area is too small, the bottom surfaces of
traversing unit and supporting shoe must be on the same level.
FUTURO SURFACE
The complete manual is onto the CD,
which is delivered with the instrument.
