Silva Clinometer Instruction Manual

Introducción

The Silva Clinometer is a versatile instrument designed for accurately measuring angles in various applications, particularly for vehicles. It features two distinct scales for precise readings: a primary scale covering ±35° and a fine-tuning scale for angles up to ±5°. This device is ideal for monitoring the heeling angle on sailing boats, checking power-trim on powerboats, and ensuring equipment or vehicles maintain a desired level or angle.

Configuración

The Silva Clinometer is designed for easy installation on various surfaces, such as dashboards or bulkheads. Ensure the mounting surface is clean, dry, and stable before installation. Use appropriate fasteners (not included) to secure the clinometer firmly in place. Position the clinometer so that the scales are clearly visible and the device can freely measure the angle of inclination.

Instrucciones de funcionamiento

The Silva Clinometer provides angle measurements using two distinct scales. For angles up to ±5 degrees, refer to the top, more precise scale for detailed readings. For larger angles, up to ±35 degrees, use the lower scale. The internal mechanism will automatically adjust to display the current angle of inclination. Ensure the clinometer is mounted securely and is free from obstructions to allow accurate movement of the internal indicator.
