Please ensure proper polarity.

- Close the BATTERY COMPARTMENT.

The MST is now adjusted for the new material path and is ready to measure.

The instrument is factory calibrated for a vertical material path. Therefore, before starting

measurement you need to carry out zero adjustment, as described below, each time the

tension meter is switched on. This procedure is necessary to compensate for the weight

of the measuring roller in the measuring position. The zero adjustment for the new mea-

suring path only remains effective until the instrument is switched off.
