STEP 1:
Where an adapter plate is
included, attach it to your XY stage
using the screws provided. Do not
screw the adapter plate for the
HLD117NN in place.
Use all available thread holes to
mount the plate. Lightly nip each screw with a hex key (0.3N
m
/
300cN
m
/ 0.2lbft
t
orque). In the event that the screw bottoms
out
before the head seats,
STOP
. Do not force the screw as it
may
be too long; back the screw out before moving the XY stage.

STEP 2:
Position the NanoScan
SP
stage aligning the
connection points with
those on the XY stage or
adapter plate. Mount the
stage using M4 screws
using all the available
thread holes on the XY
stage. Where the attach-
ment requires screws of
nonstandard length they
should be part of the
adapter kit. Lightly
tighten each screw with a hex hey (0.3N
m
/ 300cN
m
/
0.2lbft Torque). In the event that the screw bottoms out
before the head seats,
STOP
. Do not force the screw as
it
may be too long; back the screw out before moving the XY
stage. It is important to attach the stage using as many
mounts at possible to achieve the specified performance.
Note: The stage is a moving platform, the height will vary when powered compared to unpowered. The stage must be mounted
to a flat surface
before being
powered.
Do not connect the stage to a controller until properly mounted.
