Adjust the height of the durometer to allow the samples to be placed easily under the indenter. There is a safety stop on the shaft that should be set to avoid the instrument being able to drop accidentally into the sample or table.
Place the sample on the stand and operate the lever slowly to deploy the durometer. Allow the durometer to move gently onto the sample and display the reading.
