damage or signs of wear.
DANGER : Use extreme caution when you operate the stage without the hardcover.
1. Drive the stage table to one end of travel and remove power to the stage.
2. Remove the cover attached to the rear end plate on the side opposite of the motor (
Figure 4-1 ).
3. Remove the hardcover screws ( Figure 4-2 ).
4. Carefully slide the hardcover away from the stage ( Figure 4-3 ). This can be done without removing the
table.

Redo Steps 8 through 10 for any areas covered by the previous table position.
12. Refasten the hardcover.
IMPORTANT : For GEN II PRO series stages with travel lengths greater than or
equal to 800 mm . The hardcover mounting surfaces in the stage end plates have been
machined in such a way as to negate the natural sag due to gravity of the hardcover. As the
mounting screws are tightened, the cover gently conforms to the shape of the end plates.
Ensure that the cover is fully seated on the end plate mounting surfaces before you
operate the stage. Check each mounting screw for full engagement by tightening the screw
while holding the long side of a standard hex wrench.
13. Restore power to the stage and drive the stage table back to its original position to redistribute lub-
ricants.
