Page 4: Overview
The NDT James Instrument’s Digital Hammer is a digital meter used for measuring the hardness of paper rolls. Menus are used to navigate through the functions of the instrument. This manual covers the use of the W-D-2005 system, the W-D- 1705 and W-D-1505 systems. The differences among these units are the capabilities to print the results in the field and the ability to upload data from the instrument to a PC. - Page 5 INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE 1. Having taken the test hammer from its case, gently push the piston inwards pressing it against a stiff surface (held the hammer with both hands when using it). The piston will release itself from its catch and emerge from the body of the device which will then be ready for testing.
