be the same as the length of standard rod when the micrometer
‘measures’ the rod. For example, when 5607 (25-50mm) ‘measures’
its standard rod 25mm, the reading must be 25mm exactly.
Otherwise you should adjust the micrometer. Put the small point of
the adjusting wrench into the small hole on the sleeve which is near
the locking lever, rotate the sleeve to make the zero line of the
thimble align with the horizontal line of the sleeve. Another end of
the adjusting wrench is used to fix or unfix the ratchet stop.
4. How to measure:
Let the anvil contact with the workpeice first. Rotate the thimble or
the ratchet stop till the spindle is close to (but not in contact with)
the workpeice. Rotate the ratchet stop until you hear a click from the
ratchet stop.
5. Locking lever:
Tighten this lever to lock the reading when you have to remove the
micrometer before reading.
6. How to read
Example 1
A: 35
B: 0.12
----------
C: 35.12mm
Example 2
A: 42.5
B: 0.148 (8 is estimated)
------------
C: 42.648mm
A is the line of the sleeve which is on the left of the thimble.
B is the point on the thimble which aligns with the horizontal line on sleeve.
C is the reading
The graduation on the sleeve is 0.5mm. One rotation of the thimble makes
0.5mm (1 graduation) step on the sleeve.
