English term

Butt-up (verb)

English to Danish Tech/Engineering Mechanics / Mech Engineering Technical manual
Butt-up the T501 gauge or a ruler to the leading edge of the head (d).

I'm having difficulties translating the sentence above into Danish so it makes sense. The sentence comes from a technical manual for a Hydronic Surface Heater. I greatly appreciate your help.

Cheers
Steen

one alternative option one option would be to explain to your customer that you are substituting the hydronic surface heater manufacturer instructions with the corresponding gauge manufacturer instructions on the use of the T501 gauge with the E1101 hydronic surface heater burner flame retention head

literal translation of "place the Beckett T501 gauge edge (or a ruler) against the leading edge of the head"

in the Beckett T501 gauge learning module, the gauge edge is placed against the leading edge of the (burner) head

better watch the Beckett T501 learning module Steen, you better watch the Beckett T501 learning module, specifically Steps 9 and 11 which both mention "place the gauge edge against the leading edge of the head"
