2 Prevent rust. Although all the parts of instrument have been treated to prevent rust, the improper maintenance or long time of use on the production spot without paying attention to maintenance may also cause the rust to some components. When using it, pay special attention to its waterproof performance except clean it frequently, because many parts will bear rust with water, the water in the dial may cause deadly rust to make the instrument useless.

3 Prevent falling off. This instrument is made up of many precision components, falling off of it will result in the permanent damage to some parts.  

4 Disassembly forbidden. The testing accuracy of this instrument is guaranteed by the good collaboration of some of the precision parts.
