Attaching the positioner to an underlying surface
1.
Align the L-406 on the underlying surface so that the corresponding mounting holes in
the L-406 and underlying surface are in line.
If you use locating pins to align the L-406:

Connecting the L-406 to the Protective Earth Conductor
INFORMATION
It is only necessary to connect the L-406 to the protective earth conductor when both of the
following conditions are met:
The load on the platform of the L-406 must be connected to the protective earth
conductor, but it is not possible to connect the protective earth conductor directly to the
load.
The load and the platform are connected conductively to each other.
INFORMATION
Pay attention to the applicable standards for connecting the protective earth conductor.
