Always hold the support bar in
position to counteract twisting
forces and avoid over-stressing the
stylus break stem.
ADDITIONAL SETTING FOR SQUARE
STYLI
Stylus level setting is the same for disc and
square styli. In addition, square styli side
faces can be aligned with the machine's X/Y
axes.
Coarse rotational adjustment is obtained by
slackening the stylus holder grubscrew A,
rotating the stylus in its holder, then
retightening grubscrew A. (Always use the
support bar – see page 1-11.)
Fine rotational adjustment is obtained by
loosening the four grubscrews R1 and
alternately adjusting the two probe rotational
adjuster screws R2 and R3 until the required
tip parallelism to the axes is achieved.
Retighten grubscrews R1, R2 and R3.
Ensure all screws are tight after
adjustment.
