Operation Manual

NIDEC-SHIMPO INSTRUMENTS

Do  not  operate  or  store  instrument  in  the  following 
locations:

Explosive areas, near water, oil, dust or chemicals; ar-
eas where the temperatures can exceed 104°F 
(40° C)

Take precaution to not drop the force gauge.  Damage 
to the sensor may occur.

Do  not  modify,  disassemble  or  attempt  to  repair  the 
unit.  Send to the factory for proper repair.

If upon delivery damage to the unit is detected, do not 
operate the unit.  Notify the shipping carrier immedi-
ately to obtain damage claim instructions.

Only measure forces that are in line with the measur-
ing shaft.  Do not attempt to take any measurements 
(tension or compression) at any angle.  Failure to keep 
measurements in line will damage the instrument.
