-- First check for damage and replace, if necessary.

-- Rotate the press plate and place it on a level and clean surface.

-- Place the two end dimensions of :T40101  on the cleaned press plate running surface.

• The calipers :T40101  must lie completely on the clean running surfaces and must not lie on the edge.

-- Place the Ruler :T40100  centered on the Calipers :T40101  .

-- Measure the upper contact surface with the :VAS6087  and note the measurement -A-.

-- Measure with the :VAS6087  on the lower running surface and note the measurement -B-.

-- Subtract the measured value of both measurements "B - A" in order to get the distance "D" between the both running surfaces on the press plate.

Press plate distance calculation "D" : "B - A = D"

-- Repeat the measurement at two additional locations on the press plate offset by 120°.

-- Using these three measurements, calculate the press plate average M_D .

Average: "(value 1 + value 2 + value 3) : 3 = M_D "
