2. Switching the direction of the measuring force
!
To switch the direction of the measuring force; insert a Hex wrench (Allen key) in the bore hole,
which is approximately 100 mm from the lifting lever:
From internal to external measurement
1 Move the lifting lever to the right and hold
2 Insert the Hex wrench into the bore hole (hexagonal screw)
3 TightentheHexscrew(handtightenonly)
From external to internal measurement
4 Insert the Hex wrench into the bore hole when the lifting lever is released
5 Loosen the Hex screw
6 Hold the lifting lever and push back per hand.
Due to the built-in measuring force spring the moveable measuring arm can be moved
very quickly, this may cause damage to the measuring instrument.
Please note:
Loosen the Hex screw with 1 turn in order to avoid contact with the guide tube.

4. Setting up the measuring arm holder
Both the measuring arm holders (5, 6) must be equipped with the appropriate accessories
according to the measuring task. When used in conjunction with the Adaptor 844 Tad this
instrument is compatible with all the available measuring anvils with a M2.5 thread. In order to
always achieve reliable and accurate measuring results we recommend the use of the Depth
stop 844 Tw. Due to the exact positioning of the stops on the measuring arms it is possible to
ensure pendular motion along a plane parallel. Therefore accurate and continuously accurate
measurements can be guaranteed.

5. Setting with measuring standards (e.g. setting ring, combination of gage
blocks, master, etc.)
Comparative measurement
- Position the Multimar 844 T on the measuring standard
- With light pendular motion determine the position of the reversal point (Min. and/or Max
value) and here set the indicating instrument to "0".
Absolute measurement
- Enter the PRESET value of the indicating instrument corresponding to the measuring
standard
- Position the Multimar 844 T on the measuring standard
- With light pendular motion determine the position of the reversal point (Min. and/or Max
value) and here set the indicating instrument to the default PRESET value
Please note:
To conduct absolute measurement a digital indicator with a dynamic measuring function
and a PRESET is required. The following indicating instruments are recommended:
