Chapter 2: Mechanical Specifications and Installation
W A R N I N G : ANT95V-3 installation must be in accordance to instructions provided by this
manual and any accompanying documentation. Failure to follow these instructions could result
in injury or damage to the equipment.
2.1. Unpacking and Handling the Stage
W A R N I N G : It is the customer's responsibility to safely and carefully lift the stage.
l
Make sure that all moving parts are secure before moving the ANT95V-3. Unsecured
moving parts may shift and cause bodily injury.
l
Improper handling could adversely affect the performance of the ANT95V-3. Use care
when moving the ANT95V-3.
N O T E :
If any damage has occurred during shipping, report it immediately.
Carefully remove the ANT95V-3 from its protective shipping container. Gently set the ANT95V-3 on a
smooth, flat, and clean surface.
Before operating the ANT95V-3, it is important to let it stabilize at room temperature for at least 12 hours.
Allowing it to stabilize to room temperature will ensure that all of the alignments, preloads, and tolerances are
the same as they were when tested at Aerotech. Use compressed nitrogen or clean, dry, oil-less air to
remove any dust or debris that has collected during shipping.
Each ANT95V-3 has a label listing the system part number and serial number. These numbers contain
information necessary for maintaining or updating system hardware and software. Locate this label and
record the information for later reference.
Shipping Clamps
Red, anodized aluminum shipping brackets have been installed to prevent unwanted motion and potential
damage from occurring during shipment. The brackets must be removed before the ANT95V-3 can be
operated. Retain the brackets and hardware for future use.
