CAPTIVE LINK
In the event of excessive stylus overtravel, the
break stem breaks at its weakest point, preventing
damage to the probe mechanism.
The captive link connected to the probe and stylus
holds onto the stylus, otherwise the stylus could fall
into the machine and become lost.
When a new captive link is fitted, it must be bent to
accept screw C (see page 1-11).
