HOW TO USE THE 400-D69 iGAGING DEPTH GAUGE

The iGauging 400-D69 is a convenient, accurate, well made and robust depth gauging tool used
to measure depths, steps, pockets and holes from zero to 22". This instrument is invaluable in any
machine, manufacturing, equipment repair shop, or fabrication & production shop for precision
measurements to within .0005”.

ITEMS NEEDED :
 #400-D69 iGaging Depth Gauge.
 Precision Flat Surface (for zeroing).
 A part to measure.

DO NOT DROP THIS DEPTH GAUGE.

 THE 400-D69 iGAGING DEPTH GAUGE is a precision instrument and if the plunger is
bent it will no longer extend or retract in a precise way.

 If the base is bent or a corner “mushroomed”, this instrument will not be squared to the
part or the plunger which will produce false readings.
