Setup
1. Micrometer Battery Installation (if applicable)
The digital micrometer requires a CR2032 button cell battery for operation. While the product specifications state "No" for batteries required, user reviews indicate the use of a 2032 battery. Please check your specific unit for battery compartment location, typically under a cover on the digital display unit.
- Locate the battery compartment cover on the back or side of the digital display.
- Carefully open the cover using a small screwdriver or coin.
- Insert a new CR2032 battery with the positive (+) side facing up.
- Replace the battery compartment cover securely.
2. Micrometer Stand Assembly
The micrometer stand typically comes pre-assembled. Ensure all knobs and joints are tightened for stability before use.

Operating Instructions
1. Power On/Off
Press the ON/OFF button to turn the micrometer on or off.
2. Unit Conversion (mm/inch)
Press the In/mm button to switch between millimeter (mm) and inch (in) measurement units.
3. Zero Setting
Before taking a measurement, ensure the micrometer is clean and the anvils are closed. Press the ZERO button to set the display to zero. This establishes the reference point for your measurements.
4. Absolute/Incremental Measurement
Press the ABS button to toggle between absolute and incremental measurement modes. Absolute mode measures from the set zero point, while incremental mode allows for relative measurements from any point.
5. Taking a Measurement
- Clean the measuring surfaces of the object and the micrometer anvils.
- Open the micrometer by rotating the thimble or ratchet stop.
- Place the object between the measuring anvils.
- Slowly close the micrometer using the ratchet stop until it clicks 2-3 times. This ensures consistent measuring pressure.
- Read the measurement directly from the digital display.
6. Using the Micrometer Stand
- Loosen the clamping knob on the micrometer stand.
- Carefully place the micrometer into the clamp, ensuring the protective rubber pads are in contact with the micrometer body to prevent marring.
- Adjust the angle and position of the micrometer using the flexible rotary joints as needed for comfortable and stable measurement.
- Tighten the clamping knob to secure the micrometer in place.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: After each use, wipe the micrometer and stand with a clean, lint-free cloth. For the micrometer, pay special attention to the measuring surfaces and the spindle. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials.
- Storage: Store the micrometer and stand in their protective case when not in use. Keep them in a dry, clean environment away from direct sunlight, extreme temperatures, and corrosive substances.
- Battery Replacement: Replace the CR2032 battery when the display becomes dim or does not turn on. Refer to the "Setup" section for battery installation instructions.
- Calibration: For professional applications, periodic calibration by a qualified technician is recommended to maintain accuracy.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Display does not turn on. | Dead or improperly installed battery. | Check battery orientation. Replace battery if necessary. |
| Inaccurate readings. | Micrometer not zeroed correctly; dirt on measuring surfaces; excessive measuring force. | Ensure micrometer is zeroed before use. Clean measuring surfaces. Use the ratchet stop for consistent pressure. Consider professional calibration. |
| Display shows "E" or error code. | Internal error or low battery. | Try turning the micrometer off and on again. Replace battery. If problem persists, contact customer support. |
