Mounting Lifting Release
A release (optional/Parts No.540774) is available.
1. Remove the rubber cap from the release mounting hole.
2. Insert the release as far as possible into the hole.
・ Store the removed rubber cap, taking care to prevent loss.
IMPORTANT ・ When attaching the rubber cap, screw it into the hole.
・ When the release is not mounted, be sure to keep the rubber cap inserted.
・ Inserting any object other than the release or applying an excess force to the hole may
cause instrument malfunction.
・ Moving the spindle up or down while the release is loose may damage the internal parts.

Replacing Contact Point
Interchangeable contact points and extension rods for Mitutoyo dial indicators are
available.
1. Use two pliers (One is for holding the spindle and the other is for holding the contact
point.) and a rag in the figure below. Rotate the plier which is holding the contact point
clockwise to remove the contact point.
2. In a similar way, rotate the plier which is holding a contact point or an extension rod
counterclockwise to mount.
IMPORTANT
No. 99MAH034B
・ When replacing the contact point hold the spindle and turn the contact point.
Otherwise, the indicator may be damaged.
・ Changing the contact point also may change the external dimensions, measuring
force, and limitation of the measuring direction. Contact point errors such as the
non-perpendicularity of a flat contact point and run-out of the roller point add to the
measurement error.
