DIGITAL DEPTH GAUGE
(HOOK END)
Thank you for purchasing Niigata Seiki Digital Depth Gauge.
This is a precision measuring tool for measuring depth. In addition to standard depth measurements, this
gauge has a hooked probe for measuring depth of offset surfaces on features such as grooves and ledges, as
well as standard depth measurements.
●For safe and proper use, please read this instruction manual before use and follow the procedures described.
●Please keep manual where it is accessible to user for future reference.
Keep this manual with the instrument if transferred or leased to a third party.
●For inquiries about this product, please contact distributor or place of purchase.

After use, wipe off any dirt or oil from measuring surfaces, sliding surfaces, and exterior using a dry cloth and
perform rust prevention treatment.
For rust prevention, lightly apply anti-rust oil, or place in rust preventive bag.
Store with Lock Screws loosened.
If stored with Lock Screw tight, expansion due to temperature changes may cause excessive force which will
cause inaccuracy.
Store in a cool, dry, and dark location in the provided case.
Keep out of direct sunlight and moisture, and please keep secure from unauthorized personnel.
Remove battery if Gauge will not be used for a long period of time.

PREPARATION FOR USE
MEASUREMENTS PRESET FUNCTION
■Power ON/OFF
① To turn ON, press the [ON/OFF/P] Button.
② To turn OFF, press and hold the [ON/OFF/P] Button for about 2 sec.
※If power does not turn OFF, gauge is expecting Preset Value to be set. (Refer to "Preset Function" section
for instructions on clearing.)
③HOLD Function
With power ON, pressing the [HOLD] Button will freeze the value on the Display. Press a second time to
release.
Before using the Gauge, please follow the steps below:
●
Wipe off rust proofing and dirt from measuring surfaces and slide.
Contamination of surfaces may cause measurement error.
●Allow the Gauge and object to be measured time to reach the same temperature.
A temperature difference between the object to be measured and the instrument may cause measurement
error. Allow enough time for the temperatures to equilibrate.
Absolute Mode
① Loosen the Lock Screw and turn power ON.
②Position the Hook against the Reference Surface and
press the [ZERO/INC] Button.
The LCD will displays "0.00mm" and "INC", the
Reference Measurement is now set.
③When measuring a workpiece, the display reading will
be difference between the Reference Surface and the
workpiece surface.
Comparative Mode
■Depth Measurement
By measuring the thickness of the Hook and setting it as a Preset Value, the Gauge can be used as a Depth Gauge
for standard and for offset depth measurements.
By entering a Preset Value, that value can be set as reference point for future measurements.
【Setting the Preset Value】
① Loosen the Lock Screw and turn power ON.
② Press the [ON/OFF/P] Button and the letter "P" will start to blink on the Display.
③ Press and hold the [ON/OFF/P] Button and the blinking character will move to one of the display digits.
④ A short press of the [ON/OFF/P] Button will change the value of the blinking character.
⑤ Repeat steps ③ and ④ to set the desired value on the display.
⑥ When the desired value is displayed, move the blinking character back to the letter "P" and a short press of
the [ON/OFF/P] Button will set that value as the Preset.
【Recalling the Preset Value】
Press the [ON/OFF/P] Button 2 times to recall the Preset Value to the Display.
【Preset Measurement Mode】
The Preset Value is stored and will be retained even after switching modes using the [ZERO/INC] Button.
①
②
Loosen the Lock Screw and measure the Hook thickness
using a micrometer or similar precision instrument.
Preset the value measured in step ① using the "Preset
Function".
③Position the Hook against the Base of
the Gauge so that there is no gap and
press the [ON/OFF/P] Button 2 times
to set the display reading to the
Preset Value.
④When measuring a workpiece, the
display reading will be the distance
from the base to the bottom surface.
※Refer to "Preset Function" for
directions on setting Presets.
Absolute Mode
※Preset Function not needed for this mode.

②
Loosen the Lock Screw and turn power ON.
