Installation Notes

Installation is performed by machinists or metrologists as part of indicator setup. Before mounting, ensure the clamping arm or magnetic base is fully locked off and demagnetized if required by the work surface. Insert the shank fully into the holder clamp and tighten the clamping mechanism securely before taking measurements. Do not overtighten clamp screws, as this may damage the shank or affect indicator alignment.
