2
Push a new rubber boot over the spindle. The end with the larger diameter should be on the stem side.
3
Apply a small amount of silicone-type adhesive over the grooves (A). Do not allow any of the adhesive to con-
taminate the spindle; this may cause the spindle to stick.
4
Use a pair of tweezers to fit one end of the boot into the groove on the stem.
5
Stretch the boot with your fingers and fit the other end of the boot in the groove on the spindle.
6
Use a clean cloth to wipe off the excess adhesive.

rates too quickly, contact the nearest Mitutoyo sales office.
