3) Set dial gauge to mounting dummy and make 0 (zero)
adjustment on surface plate.
NOTE:
• When setting dial gauge to mounting dummy, tighten
screw lightly. Be careful not to overtighten it, which will
cause damage to dial gauge.
• With dial gauge set, turn dummy back and force by
hand a couple of times and attain accurate 0 (zero)
adjustment.
• It is desirable that short pointer indicates beyond 2 mm
when long one is at 0 (zero).

4) Place zero-adjusted mounting dummy and dial gauge set on
pinion mounting dummy and take measurement between
zero position and extended dial gauge measuring tip.
NOTE:
• Repeat turning back and force of dummy and measure
distance as far as top surface of pinion dummy accu-
rately.
• When dial gauge measuring tip extends from 0 (zero)
position, pointer turns counterclockwise.
• Measured value may exceed 1 mm. Therefore, it is also
necessary to know reading of short pointer.
