When Using the Depth regulator nose
Using the depth regulator nose makes it possible to engrave even workpiece of non-uniform thickness at the same depth.
Rotate than depth regulator nose in the direction of the
arrow 2 in the figure to tighten it completely.

This determines the engraving depth (cutting-in
amount). The scale on the micrometer dial assembly
has 25 grooves, with one groove corresponding to an
engraving depth of 0.025 mm (1/1000"). (One full
turn of the scale corresponds to an engraving depth of
0.625 mm.) Rotate the scale in the direction of the
arrow shown in the figure by an amount equal to or
greater than the engraving depth.
For example, when engraving to a depth of 0.5 mm,
the scale should be rotated by 20 grooves or more
(approximately one full turn). For engraving at a
depth of 1.5 mm, rotate the scale by 60 grooves or
more (approximately three turns).

If the depth regulator nose does not reach the surface of the
workpiece even when the [-Z] key is held down, rotate the
micrometer dial in the direction shown by the arrow in the
figure to extent the tip of the depth regulator nose to the
workpiece surface.
