Depending on the failure reason and measures taken, the steps
described in chapter "Set up" must be carried out again, if necessary.
8 .3 Exchange or shorten cable/rod
The cable or rod (meas. part) of the probe can be shortened, if
necessary. To loosen the meas. part you need two fork spanners with
spanner width 8.
1 Loosen the measuring component by applying a fork spanner to
the flat surfaces (SW 8), provide counterforce with another fork
spanner (SW 8)
2 Unscrew the loosened measuring component manually
3 Place the enclosed new double washer onto the thread.
Caution:
Make sure that the two components of the double washer remain
together.
4 Screw in a new measuring part manually
5 Exert counterforce with the second fork spanner and tighten the
measuring component on the flat surfaces with a torque of 15 Nm
(11 lbf ft).

Information:
Please keep the stated torque so that the max. tensile strength
remains.
