Installation of the effective load
Place the effective load so that the tilting torque resulting from
force F (parallel to the axis of motion) and lever arm “a” remains
low.

Fasten the effective load to the slide with the screws and cent
ring sleeves.
Make sure that the maximum screw-in depth D is adhered to.

Effective loads with own guide:
Adjust the guides of the effective load and of the EGC so that they are exactly parallel.
You will then avoid overloading the guide and increased wear.
With hard and stiff effective loads (e.g. steel):
Note
If the aluminium slide becomes bent against a curved
effective load, the service life of the guide will be re
duced.
Make sure that the mounting surface of the
effective loads is even to within t=0.01 mm.
If additional slides are used, possible differences in
height must be compensated for.

Effective loads projecting in the longitudinal direction of the slide:
Make sure that the effective load does not strike against the
motor.
