Tapped holes are provided on the rod side for mounting. You can use these tapped holes to install the 
actuator. The maximum thread length of rod mounting screws is specified above. Make sure the bolt ends 
do not project through the holes. 
 

(3)  Using a flange (optional) with screws 

An optional flange is available. You can use this flange to install the actuator.
