The VEVOR Dial Test Indicator (IG520-183) is designed for machinists, toolmakers, and shop technicians who require precision measurement for lathe and milling machine setups. Its primary benefit is the combination of high-accuracy 0.03 mm measurement with a versatile, 360-degree flexible arm, though users should note that the physical size of the unit requires adequate clearance in highly compact workspaces.

Yes, a professional storage case is included to protect the device and its components.
The dial face has a diameter of 2.4 inches.
Yes, the flexible arm and locking base make it ideal for lathe and milling machine alignments.
The unit provides a measuring range of 0-25.4 mm.
The unit features integrated locking pliers that allow for secure attachment to various machine surfaces.
Check if the probe tip is stuck or if there is debris inside the movement assembly; gently clean the area.
Ensure all arm joints are fully locked and the base is firmly attached to a stable surface; verify the probe is not over-extended.
Check that the indicator is mounted perpendicularly to the surface being measured and that the probe tip is not worn.
To set up the indicator, first inspect the surface where the locking pliers will attach; ensure it is clean and free of metal chips to ensure a rigid grip. Once attached, use the adjustment knobs to position the probe against the target workpiece until the needle moves within the intended range.
For care, always store the unit in the included case to prevent damage to the delicate internal gear mechanism. Avoid dropping the tool or exposing it to excessive vibrations, as this can affect the accuracy of the 0.03 mm precision. Periodically clean the probe tip with a lint-free cloth, and ensure the arm joints are tightened securely before taking a measurement to prevent 'creep' during operation.
