I bought a new set of dial calipers from Midway,July,1 year ago. I never opened them because i didn't need them,my old set still worked? Last Friday i opened them,to use.
The dial arrow pointed to zero with rhe jaws snug closed. I ran the jaw down about half the length of the tool and ran it back up shut. Once the jaws were shut the dial indicater stopped at .015 instead of zero. It had just or slid back .015.
Is there any way to reset the dial. I can spin the gauge to match the needle but it is not were i am use to it being?
I contacted Midway and was told,in an E-mail,that it has been to long since i got them to be replaced but i could send them back for a replacement,maybe?
The postage,back and forth,is more than i want to waste.
Some where there is a Chinese guy laughing at me for trusting old Larry's high quiality tools!!!!!
Well,i should have known to open them up and seen if they were ok,but,i had alot of trust in Midyways products. That has now gone away!
