How to Measure
1. Apply couplant to the surface of your part.

surface and press down.
3. Lift the probe when you hear a
double BEEP or see the green indi-
cator light blink. Measurement result
is displayed on the LCD.
A second reading may be taken at the same spot by
continuing to hold the probe down on the surface.
4. When completely finished, wipe the probe clean
of couplant then return both Gage and probe to the
protective case. There is no need to disconnect the
probe from the Gage during storage.

The probe must be periodically zeroed using the
ZERO menu option to compensate for both extreme
temperature and probe wear effects. Before using,
allow the probe to reach ambient temperature. Wipe
the probe clean of couplant.
If measurements will be made in extreme hot or cold
temperatures, it is recommended to ZERO the probe
in the working environment.
