Your FGV-XY has an internal mechanism which helps prevent overloading
when the measured force is applied in line with the sensor shaft. Applying
a twisting, bending or perpendicular force to the shaft will result in
permanent damage, and inaccurate measurements.
To ensure consistent accuracy, it is recommended
that your FGV-XY be calibrated at a minimum of
once per year.
Contact your Shimpo dealer for information regarding
calibration.
Avoid dropping your FGV-XY.
