1. Alinement of planimeter with lens tracing assembly. Alinement of the
p l a n i m e t e r provides information needed to make area and volume measurements. Using
the testing procedure provides values needed to check alinement with factory
determined values and provides a constant in determining additional measurements and
calculations.
T e s t measurement is made with the test rule. Measurement with the
test rule traces a circle with a two inch radius. The area of that circle has a
