You have three options. you can use dial indicator as dial stop only, hard stop only or both. The dial indicator resolution is .0005 of inch increments.	Micro-height Adjustment makes it easy to go back to any facet after the dop has been removed from the dop chuck. No numbers to write down. It's quick and simple. This feature is particularly helpful in production faceting or when sharing your machine. The Facetron can roll back to any facet by setting the angle the stone was cut at on the digital protractor and reading the dial indicator.
