Assembly 3D Probe-Positioners
The 3D Probe Positioner is delivered in three single components: Base [A], positioner [B] and probe holder [C].
Screw the positioner [B] to the base [A] and tighten it with a combination wrench (width across flats 7 mm).
The base is available in four different variants: Steel base, vacuum base, table clamp or magnet foot.
Finally screw the probe holder [C] to the other side of the positioner and thighten it with a combination wrench
(width across flats 7 mm), too.
Clamping the Probe
Release the holder tensioning knob [E] and clamp the probe into the probe holder [C], as shown in the figure.
To fix the probe turn the holder tensioning knob [E] contrary until the probe is fixed.
Three different sizes of opening ports are available at the probe holder, which can be used for different probe
dimensions.

Maintenance and General Notes
Basically the 3D Probe Positioner is maintanance-free. However if the device is exposed to pollution, regular
cleaning is necessary.
Remove dust and dirt from the joints.
For cleaning purposes use standard cleaning agents commercially available (don`t use any lyes or acids!).
Apply a little amount of lubricant to the screws and joints.

Handling 3D Probe-Positioners
The 3D Probe Positioner can be operated easily.
Hold the 3D Probe Positioner and loosen the central tensioning knob [D] until the 3D Probe Positioner can be
moved. Bring the 3D Probe Positioner into the desired position and fix the device by turning the central
tensioning knob [D] contrary. With the spring tip of PMK probes you can set precisely the contact to the
measuring point.
Attention: Do not release the tensioning knob [D] completely, since otherwise the 3D Probe Positioner
collapses in itself and could damage your measuring setup!
