3.2 Function
Measuring wheel
The measuring wheel moves the counter.
Safety bolt
The safety bolt locks the horizontal guide rollers and the counter roller during material insertion after
they have been pulled down with the grip handle.
Horizontal guide rollers
The length measuring device’s horizontal guide rollers guide the material. Spring tension adjusts the
horizontal guide rollers automatically to the material.
Vertical guide
The length measuring device’s vertical guide directs the material and folds open during material inser-
tion. The resistance can be set using the adjustment lever.

Inserting material
►Pull the grip handle on the lower roller structure downward until the safety bolt clicks in.
►Fold open the vertical guide.
►Insert the material.
►Fold the vertical guide shut. If necessary, increase the resistance. To do this, pull the adjustment
lever out and turn it in the desired direction.
►Gently close the roller structure. To do this, pull the safety bolt and hold it while closing.

✓The material is inserted.
6.2.2 Accessories
6.2.2.1 Roller cages
Info
Never adjust the guide rollers so that the material has no clearance between the roll-
ers or is jammed.
The material must have a clearance of about 2 mm between the rollers so that it runs
smoothly though the rollers if there are tolerances in the diameter.
If the material has greater tolerances, adjust the rollers so that they have appropriate
clearance.

Info
ATTENTION!
On the length measuring device’s intake side, the horizontal guide roller must be ad-
justed to the direction of the material feed and the properties of the material.
That means:
If the material is fed from above, the position of the horizontal guide roller is above on
the intake side, and the material is guided under the guide roller to the length measur-
ing device.
If the material is fed from below, the position of the horizontal guide roller is below on
the intake side, and the material is guided over the guide roller to the length measur-
ing device.
Info
ATTENTION!
Always pull the material through the length measuring device in a straight line, be-
cause otherwise contact to the measuring wheel will be broken, which can cause inac-
curate measurement results.
