Optional Metric Measurement Adapter
The rain gauge collector tipping bucket mechanism contains a standard
measurement weight magnet that takes measurements in .01” for every
tip of the bucket. The tipping bucket assembly contains a metric
measurement that adjusts the tipping bucket mechanism so that it takes
0.2 mm metric measurements. To change the weight magnet:
1. Find the metric measurement adapter included in the hardware.
2. Locate the standard measurement weight magnet between the arms of
the tipping mechanism.
3. Open the arms slightly with one hand while pulling the magnet out with
the other hand.
4. Separate an end cap from one side of the magnet.
5. Slide the magnet, with the exposed end of the magnet first, into the
open slot of the metric measurement adapter.
