Getting started
Coating thickness gauge GL-6+ is designed to measure the thickness of a steel, galvanized steel or
aluminium sheet paint coating. It is also possible to make a measurement based on a defined reference point..
The device has a LCD backlight which makes measuring in places with insufficient light (e.g. garage) much
easier.
Before You start to use the device, please place a new alkaline battery or a fully charged accu in the back
side of the device's housing. In order to do it please take off the battery flap and place correctly the battery or
accu by connecting it to the clips on the cable.
WARNING! The device is preset to galvanized steel and aluminium (Zn/Al)! Should the measurement be
taken on older cars with non-galvanized steel bodywork, the „Steel" option shall be chosen.
Zeroing (calibration)
Before You start to take measurements, please check whether the gauge is calibrated. To do it properly,
please select the „ZERO" function from the main menu and put the sensor against the green side of the
calibration sheet. If the display shows a 0 +/-10µm value, it means that the gauge is calibrated. Should the
aberration be larger than 0 +/-10µm, please put the sensor once more against the green side of the calibration
sheet, wait until the result stabilizes and press the "OK" button while the sensor still touches the sheet. On the
display will appear a „OK..." caption and the device will return automatically to the main menu.
