buttons, select right material code, the impact direction is down.
Turn off the machine after do setup.
press setup button and On/Off button together (about 2 seconds)
to enter conversion value calibration, the INSIZE logo will blink on
top left corner. Measure 5 times on the surface of workpiece (you
should do enter calibration mode again if get any value which
deviation is large).

Input the actual value of workpiece by use up and down buttons
then press return button back to measurement mode.

Note: The distance between any two impact position should be ≥3mm.
the distance between impact position and the edge of the sample
should be ≥3mm.
Measurement
Preparation before measuring:
1
Turn on the machine.
Press setup button and set statistic times, select the material
code according to the back label, then press return button
back to measurement mode.

Note: The value can only convert to “Mpa” When select the
material code 11~20.
Press up arrow button to select right conversion scale.
Note
1. The conversion value is “---” indicated the conversion is out of
range.
2. Conversion value only supplies the general reference, which
may result in some offset. Precisely conversion generally needs
related comparative tests.

Sample Preparation:
Inappropriate sample will cause a great measurement error.
Therefore, users should make the necessary handling and
preparation under the original conditions of sample.
Preparation of the sample and the surface of test should be
coincident with the following basic requirements:
1) During the process of sample surface preparation, users
should avoid the impacts of cold processing and thermal
processing.
2) The sample surface is plane for better, the test surface
should be with a metallic sheen, and not involve oxide layer
orother stains.
3) Roughness of the test surface Ra ≤ 1.6
4) Sample must be of sufficient quality and rigidity. If it's lack
of quality and rigidity, it may cause displacement or shaking in
the process of testing impact, which can lead to large errors.
Generally speaking, if the sample quality is more than 5kg can
be directly tested; if the sample quality is 2~5kgs, the sample
should be taken in fixation test by means of appropriate
clamping; if the sample quality is 0.1~2kgs, the sample
should be conducted coupling before the test; if the sample
qu a lit y is les s t han 0.1 k g, t his har d ne s s te ste r i s
inappropriate to use.
Coupling method: Testing sample's back should be prepared
to make a plane as a supporting surface with a smooth
formation. Filling with a little coupling substance (Industry
Vaseline can be used), users can now press to the surface of
the supporting object (The weight of supporting object should
be more than 5 kg, and it can be replaced by test block) to
stick into integration.
5) Samples should be thick enough and with sufficient surface
absorption layered. If users use D-type impact device, the
thickness of sample should not be less than 5mm, and surface
absorption layer (or surface-hardening layer) should not be
less than 0.8mm. To accurately measure the hardness of the
material, the best way is to remove the surface-hardening
material, the best way is to remove the surface-hardening
layer by processing.
6) When testing sample surface is not horizontal, the
curvature radius of testing and nearby surface should be
