Banana Gauge Explained
Banana Gauge Explained
Should the reading differ from the known thickness of the shim,
the gauge should be rotated back to the zero point, and the scale
should be adjusted by holding the black wheel in position, and
simultaneously moving the thin steel calibration strip up or
down according to requirements. If the initial reading is less
than the shim thickness, the scale would have to be moved up.
Alternately, a reading greater than that of the shim would
require the scale to be moved down.
The calibration process should then be repeated as many times
as is required, until the correct thickness reading of the relevant
shim is achieved.
