3. INTRODUCTION
The Z_CAL height gauge is designed to work on a flat reference surface, such as granite or
scraped cast iron plate... A number of technological innovations make this instrument very
suitable for fast, accurate and reliable measurements. It offers the following main advantages :
• Very low measuring force (30 grams) for delicate parts and excellent repeatability.
• Fully motorized probe. Its displacement speed is proportional to the finger pressure. The
probe automatically tracks profiles and maintains a constant measuring force : measuring
diameters is, therefore, quick and precise.
• Reduced weight, for easy handling.
• Very easy to operate, so that it can be used both in the workshop and laboratory.
4. GETTING STARTED
Unscrew screw (19) and remove cover (21).
Unscrew and remove the M4 x 30 mm screw (20) which secures the counterweight during
shipping. Remove the locking insert and place the screw it in the provided thread bore.
Note : the locking of the counter weight is done with the probe down. Remove the probe
holder for transport.
Connect the AC adapter (15) : - red light = fast charging 4 hours
- green light = trickle charge
Note : charging continuously will not affect the batteries. If the batteries are completely down,
the Z_CAL may start searching for its references, moving first to the upper stop (Ref 1) and
then to the bottom stop (Ref 0).
Press ON (2) to start up the Z_CAL.
Press up (13) to the upper stop. Introduce the probe holder in the provided location, when
pushing up.
Press UP (13) or DOWN (14). The speed is proportional to the pressure applied to these
sensitive keys.
Important : The insert as well as the screw must be replaced for subsequent shipping of
the instrument,
for inspection or overhaul, as part of after-sales service.
