1 Introduction

Annotation: Please read the remarks in this instruction manual carefully before the
first use, even if you are already experienced with our SAUTER measuring devices.
After receipt of your force gauge, please check the instrument, whether any transport
damages have occurred. Please check, whether the outer packaging, the plastic
housing or any other parts or even the instrument itself have been damaged. If any
damages are determined, please inform SAUTER immediately.

„Sensor outside“means, that the load cell is outside the housing, connected by a
cable with the display unit.

SAUTER offers suitable software and a wide range of accessories optionally. So you
are able to configure your measuring instrument more versatile. Please ask us at
SAUTER or your SAUTER reseller or just visit us on our website www.sauter.eu
