A Turning the distance setting adjuster clockwise (to the Max

ranging from the Min position to the Max position, and its
number of turns is displayed on the setting distance indi-
cator according to the rotation of the adjuster.

Precautions
Correct Use
Design • Install the photoelectric sensor in either of the following ori-
Cable entations, being careful of the direction in which the sensing
object will move.
The oil-resistant cable is used to ensure oil resistance.
