Measuring
Select the smallest suitable slot for the test sample diameter.
It is necessary to zero-set the instrument before starting each tractive force
measurement. Press the RESET-button for this purpose. The RESET-button
can also be used for deleting the peak value updated in the memory.
Place the cable connection into the adapter, so that the sleeve of
the cable connector stays securely inside the ring and cannot be
pulled out through the slot.
The excentric with the hand lever should be at the home position
fully open.
Insert the free cable end with slight tension into the excentric and
pull the hand lever clockwise. The nut in the rotative center will
help you to find the right position for the cable.
