WARNING
Care must be taken whenever handling the force
transducer. These transducers are easily dam-
aged. The 2.0 kg, 3.6 kg and 50 lb transducers
are supplied with protective stops for overload
under compression. However, tension or rota-
tional forces applied in excess of 150% of full-
scale rating will permanently damage the trans-
ducer.
The 2.0 kg, 3.6 kg and 50 lb force transducers are supplied with two tips
(small and large, refer to Figure 2.3). To change tips on the force transducer,
use the allen wrench provided and carefully loosen the set screw holding the
tip (refer to Figure 2.4).
