If the depth regulator nose does not reach the surface of the workpiece

even when the [-Z] key is held down, rotate the micrometer dial in the

direction shown by the arrow in the figure to extent the tip of the depth

regulator nose to the workpiece surface.

If the tip of the depth regulator nose doesn't reach the surface of the

workpiece because the workpiece is too thin, place a board between the

workpiece and the table.

When Using the Depth regulator nose

Using the depth regulator nose makes it possible to engrave even workpiece of non-uniform thickness at the same depth.

Rotate than depth regulator nose in the direction of the

arrow 2 in the figure to tighten it completely.

This determines the engraving depth (cutting-in

amount). The scale on the micrometer dial assembly

has 25 grooves, with one groove corresponding to an

engraving depth of 0.0254 mm (0.001 in.). (One full

turn of the scale corresponds to an engraving depth of

0.635 mm (0.025 in.).) Rotate the scale in the

direction of the arrow shown in the figure by an

amount equal to or greater than the engraving depth.

For example, when engraving to a depth of 0.5 mm

(0.0197 in.), the scale should be rotated by 20 grooves

(approximately one full turn). For engraving at a

depth of 1.5 mm (0.0591 in.), rotate the scale by 59

grooves (approximately three turns).
