4 DOLLIES
Dollies can be re-used after cleaning.
Large dollies
Coatings on concrete, cementatious layers and uneven surfaces can be tested more effectively with a large
dolly. This has twice the diameter and so 4 times the area of the standard dolly. The scale readings of the
Elcometer 106 must be divided by 4 to compensate.
The large dolly is taller than the standard dolly. A special base ring is used to support the instrument to
enable correct operation. The large dollies and base ring are available from Elcometer or your local supplier
- see “Spare parts and accessories” on page 11.
5 MAINTENANCE
The Elcometer 106 Pull Off Adhesion Tester is designed to give many years service under normal operating
and storage conditions.
Lubricate the screw threads with light machine oil on a regular basis.
Pull-off force
The pull-off force is provided by the progressive compression of Belleville washers.
