Very close, close, and minute measuring tool. Microscopic measurements. Itty ***** teeny weeny.

Need code number (model number). Then go to Mitutoyo website and look up the manual. Or you can call technical support and they will assist.

I would recommend that you set each rod to zero using a set of jo-blocks to be perfectly accurate. I've been in the trade for 40 + years and this would be best for you. hope this helps you

If you are certain that everything is clean and otherwise in good condition, adjust it to read correctly by rotating the graduated cylinder with a special spanner wrench typically supplied with the mic. The graduated cylinder will rotate in the frame.

Good day ;o)

In order to reset the zero point for your specific micrometer, you will need to have a standard set of pre-set dimensional pin(s). You can check the attached link (page 71 of the Mitotoyo catalog) for the information you need). I guess you could try to find or make a pin with the same dimensions as those noted on the catalog page, but if you're using this in a manufacturing setting, you might have no choice but to purchase a set of gauges for calibrating your micrometer.

The only other option is to contact the manufacturer for an alternative method, but I doubt they'll be able to provide any alternative, as precision setting of the zero point is required for accurate readings with this specialty micrometer.
