OXFORD 150A

[Way-Barney]

Hello there,

I have managed to obtain the above hardness tester second hand from a die test shop, they lsot the specific contract some time ago and it has not been used for a number of years.

The weight selector dial is turning but it does not appear to catch the weights for adjustment.

Is anyone familiar with this equipment who could perhaps offer some service guidance?

Thanks

Is that anything like the HR-150A hardness tester? I think this link is ok as it's for a manual.

Yep, I see it's the same tester. Here's the manual for the Oxford 150R tester (link to manual, NOT a "for sale"):

Thanks Ken for taking the trouble to find and post those guides. Appreciate it. The first one is a big help!
