Check the drum position 0
• Check position −0.05
The zero line on the measuring drum is moved downwards, opposite the index,
by a single marking width. The feeler arm must move by itself all the way to the
stop-piece, in the direction of the examiner.
• Check po0.05
The zero line on the measuring drum is moved upwards, opposite the index. The
feeler arm must move all the way to the stop-piece, on the patient's side.
Check the drum position 2
• To conduct it, a control weight is used. The weight rod is engraved with five
rings. The middle ring corresponds to a scale value of 0, the rings immediately
to its left and right correspond to a value of 2, and both outside scale rings have
a value of 6.
• One of the drum setting marks is set exactly to the index line on the holder. The
weight is fitted on the feeler axis (33) so that the longer part points to the exam-
iner.
