3) Set dial gauge to mounting dummy and make 0 (zero) adjust-
ment on surface plate.
NOTE:
D When setting dial gauge to mounting dummy, tighten
screw lightly. Be careful not to overtighten it, which will
cause damage to dial gauge.
D With dial gauge set, turn dummy back and force by hand
a couple of times and attain accurate 0 (zero) adjustment.
D 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:
D Repeat turning back and force of dummy and measure
distance as far as top surface of pinion dummy accurate-
ly.
D When dial gauge measuring tip extends from 0 (zero)
position, pointer turns counterclockwise.
D Measured value may exceed 1 mm. Therefore, it is also
necessary to know reading of short pointer.
