QUESTION 7 OF 32

How do you adjust a manual lensometer?

The interviewer needs to know that you understand your job and know how to use the tools of the trade. They want to see if you will need to be trained or if you seem competent to do the job. Describe in detail the steps you take to adjust a manual lensometer.

"To adjust a manual lensometer, I first place the lensometer on a stable surface and slowly turn the eyepiece counterclockwise until the black cross becomes completely clear. I then focus the eyepiece on the display area and rotate the measuring wheel to set the scale at zero."
