Increase the pressure on the measuring pins
for rough surfaces if necessary.
For delicate surfaces complete the measure-

area.
Note: The measuring pins are sharp and
may dent or damage the surface.
Rub the damp residue on the surface before
taking the measurement.

readings and results that are too high.
Remove the bark from firewood if needed.
Press the measuring pins against the grain in
