To insert the material to be measured:
1. Push the thumbpiece in the direction of the arrow into its threading
position 1 (1) until the outer guide rollers extend beyond the lament guide.
2. Position the material to be measured into the tension meter in such a way that
it contacts the Filament guide and passes between the outer rollers and the middle
measuring roller (1) .
3. Slowly move the thumbpiece back into the adjustment position (2) . It
is important to ensure that the material to be measured runs smoothly between the
measuring roller and the guide rollers.

If the thumbpiece is not in position 2, a corresponding
