Figure 1-4 Mounting locations for four-point mount with feet.
Important Note:
After the laser is fastened into position, remove the lifting handles if necessary
Four-point mount without feet
Use this scheme to mount the laser to a horizontal or vertical surface (or to a surface that will move dy-
namically in multiple axes) by fastening directly into the laser’s base plate. To use a four-point mount, the
variation in mounting surface flatness must not exceed 1.02 mm (0.040").
To install a i401 (without feet) using the four-point mounting method, perform the following steps:
1
Raise the i401 laser and place support blocks under the base plate.
2
Unscrew the four M10 cap screws fastening the feet to the bottom of the i401 laser and remove
the factory-installed mounting feet.
3
Refer to the i401 outline and mounting drawing (Sheet 2 of 2) for Option ‘B’ mounting
dimensions, then drill four 10.6 mm (close fit) or 11.2 mm (normal fit) thru holes in your mounting
Caution: Possible Equipment Damage
When removing the mounting feet, raise the laser by placing support blocks under the base plate.
Do not lay or place the i401 laser on its side or top, even temporarily, because the sheet metal
covers are not designed to support the weight of the laser. Always support and mount the laser
using the mounting feet or base plate to avoid damaging the laser.
