Notes : During adjustment, care should be
taken not to rotate the probe relative to the shank.
If a probe/shank unit is accidentally dropped, it
should be checked for on-centre position.
Do not hit or tap the probe to achieve on-centre
adjustment.

4. There are four screws
A. Each will move
the probe relative to the shank, in the X or
Y direction as pressure is applied. Tighten
individually, backing off after each movement.
5. When centering with screws
A, progressively
tighten as the final setting is approached.
Slackening on one side and tightening the
opposite screw, in sequence.
6. When the stylus tip run-out is less than
20 µm (0.0008 in), fully tighten screws B to
max 2.2 Nm (0.49 lbf), and use screws A in
opposition to move the probe at the same
time. Use two hexagonal keys if necessary.
Tip run out of 5 µm (0.0002 in) should be
achievable.
7. It is important that all four screws
A are tight
or tightened to a maximum of 2.2 Nm
(0.49 lbf) once the final setting has been
achieved.
