1. Description of System

The gloss meter PCE-GM 60 can be used to determine the gloss level of paints, coangs,

plascs, ceramics and metal surfaces.

2. Safety instructions

If you use the unit properly, there are no hazards to fear.

Set unit far from the children.

Do not perform any repairs on the units, neither mechanical nor electrical yourself. The

unit must be opened by trained professionals only. Please contact our customer service

department in such cases. They will be happy to assist you as quickly as possible.

Please take out the battery if you do not use the unit for a long time. Avoid the battery

flow.

3. General information

The measurement unit consists of sensitive optical and electronic precision parts.

Prevent it from being dropped or bumped or jostled!

Do not hold the unit by the measurement aperture. You should not allow any foreign

objects to get into this opening.

Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight for extended periods of time. Do not store it in a

hot or dusty environment.

Avoid prolonged high relative humidity and do not allow water to form from

condensation.

Protect the measuring unit from moisture, chemicals and corrosive vapors.

The standard board and the unit housing are resistant to many solvents. However, we

cannot guarantee resistance to all chemicals. You should therefore use a soft, moist

cloth for cleaning. For clean excessive dirt and dust, use ethanol or cleaning alcohol. Do

not use any acetone!

Please note the batteries are special refuse and shall not be disposed of together with

household refuse. Pay attention to the producers’ instruction or how to dispose of the

4. Power supply and changing battery

Before putting the unit in operating, read the operating instructions and pay attention

to operation the safety instructions and general instructions in Section. Unpack the

device and check to make certain all pieces have been included with delivery.

The device runs on one 1.5v AAA(LR03) alkaline battery(LR03). Depending the exact brand,

the capacity of each battery is sufficient for about 10,000 measurements. When the

battery voltage falls below the required minimum voltage in the course of operation, the

following massage appears on the display: ，To ensure that the unit is always ready

for operation, it is recommended to have a spare battery handy, especially when

performing measurements in the field.

Changing the battery

Open the battery cover back of the unit.

Insert the new battery into the battery box and

attention to the positive and pole as this figure.

6. Getting started from calibration

←Turning on：

Short press the button.

←Short press the button, the unit will

enter the cal. mode if it’s in the holder.

←Press the button, the unit will calibrate

to 97.0 Gu (60°) automatically.

Turning off：

1. The unit will be shut off automatic in

2 minutes.

2. Long press the button, the unit will be

shut off immediately if it’s in the

holder.

7. Testing

←Short press the button, the unit will

enter the test mode if it’s not in the

holder.

←Press the button, it shows the test

value.

8. Statistic

Long press button（over 2 second）, the

unit will enter stat. mode（Display “N0”）：

The number of measurements is 10

maximum(from N1-N0). You can decide

how much times you want to calculate.

For instance，you want to calculate 5

points statistical. Test your sample for 5

times at the different position. Its display

“N5”and wait for 2 seconds，the

deviation and average value will be

calculated automatically. It’ll display

alternately.

Long press the button(over 2 second)，the

unit will quit stat. mode and enter the test

mode.
