Test Indicator

Dial Test Indicators are designed to the positioned for easy and accurate readability and are applicable for various usages such as measuring
dimension, parallelism and centering of work piece and measuring revolution axis of machinery equipment and turnout of work pieces processed
by lathe etc., and making table face of machinery equipment parallel. This has strong point if compared with standard dial indicator and has
sensitivity for microscopic dimension displacement measurement. As its stylus is leg type with ball edge, narrow space can be measured, where
its edge (standard φ2mm ultra hand ball ) can enter.
φ0.6mm, φ0.8mm and φ1.0mm are available.

Lever Type Test Indicator Measuring direction is changed by

Change Lever.

• Measuring direction can be changed with change lever.

• Main bearings are jeweled for all models.
• A carbide ball stylus is provided for less abrasion. LT-310

4. Precautions on use
(1) Check before using Dial Crystal
Confirm whether operation is smooth. Change Lever

Confirm whether quiescent point of indicator (pointer / short hand) is

stable.
Dial Indicator : Confirm whether contact point and lug back (back lid) are Length of Stylus
Stylus
not loose.
Dial Test Indicator : Please confirm whether contact point and stem are not
loose. Torque for fastening screws of contact point is to be in the range 1.5
2.0kg cm. If it is fastened too strong, screw part will be damaged.
(2) Installation method
Dial Indicator should be installed with only stem or lug back. (Dial Test Indicator should be with stem or dovetail )
Holding tool should be sufficiently stiff.
Whether installation is right or wrong can be confirmed by that the pointer will return to the set position even after contact point of Dial
indicator (Test Lever) is touched to measured substance and inner frame (case) is pushed from up and down by finger.
Angle of Dial Test Indicator contact point Please set contact point to be perpendicular to measuring direction. In case of measuring large
angle, please correct it. Otherwise, angle error will occur.
(3) Suppose dial is read from oblique direction of outer dial, error will happen. Please read from front face.
(4) In case of changing contact point and back lid of dial indicator, please use only the parts designated by Teclock.
(5) In case of changing contact point of dial test indicator, please use only the parts designated by Teclock. As to contact point, please use the
same length. As to dial test indicator, since expansion mechanism is provided, large error will occur, in case of using contact point of
different length.
(6) In case of using it where temperature changes, please frequently confirm the setting point of pointer with master gauge etc.
(7) In case of dropping it down or making impact with it, please use it after inspection.

5. Maintenance, inspection and repair

(1) In case of operation is deteriorated due to dirt of sliding part of spindle, please wipe stains from the spindle by using a dry cloth or a cloth
dampened with alcohol.
(2) In case that outer dial can not be read due to dirt of crystal, please wipe stains from the crystal by using a dry cloth or a cloth dampened
with neutral detergent. Please do not use organic solvent like benzinethinner and alcohol etc.
(3) The performance of the indicator may deteriorate depending on the operating environment and conditions. Please determine the inspection
period according to user's operating frequency, environment, and method and periodically inspect the performance.
(4) Instruments repaired or disassembled by parties not authorized by TECLOCK can not be warranted by us.
