- Press the hardness tester firmly onto a flat, rigid surface such as a glass plate.
- Ensure the end face of the pressing needle and the bottom face of the pressing foot are in close contact with the glass plate.
- The display should read '100' degrees. If it does not, the device may require servicing or recalibration.
4.4 Provedení měření
Follow these steps to take an accurate hardness measurement:
- Ujistěte se, že sample material is placed on a firm, flat surface.
- Position the indenter at least 12mm away from the edge of the sample.
- Press the indenter firmly and vertically onto the sample material. Apply steady pressure until the indenter is in full contact with the sample.
- Read the measurement displayed on the LCD within 1 second of full contact.
4.5 Důležité aspekty
- When the indicated value of the Type A hardness tester is lower than 10 degrees, the reading is considered inaccurate and should not be used.
- Zabraňte pádu zařízení nebo jeho vystavení silným nárazům.

6. Řešení problémů
| Problém | Možná příčina | Řešení |
|---|---|---|
| Zařízení se nezapne. | Baterie je vybitá nebo nesprávně nainstalovaná. | Check battery polarity. Replace with a new 1.5V LR44 button battery. |
| Display shows erratic readings or does not zero. | Indenter is touching a surface during zeroing. Device needs reset. | Ensure indenter is free, then press the ZERO button. If problem persists, replace battery. |
| Readings are consistently below 10 degrees. | Material is too soft for Shore A scale, or measurement technique is incorrect. | Note that readings below 10 degrees are inaccurate for Shore A. Consider if a different durometer type (e.g., Shore OO) is needed for extremely soft materials. Review measurement steps. |
