The following is the recommended sequence for assembling the Measuring Head:
1.)
Laying the quarter pieces on their side, assemble the B1 & B2 quarters together and
tighten the bolts. Make sure the current direction arrows match on all quarters. Use
wood blocks to support the head quarters during assembly.
2.)
Assemble the mounting feet onto the lower half section.
3.)
To set the lower head half upright, secure the mounting straps under the two
fastening flanges as shown in the Figure 5.3.

4.)
Assemble the top half using the A1 & A2 quarters.
5.)
Set the upper half onto the lower half as shown in Figure 5.4.
The torque specs on assembly bolts used on the head are as follows:
Model
Torque
LKP-180:
Head sections: max. 75 ft.lb (102 Newton.meter)
Mounting feet: max. 75 ft.lb (102 Newton.meter)
LKP-300:
Head sections: max. 150 ft.lb (200 Newton.meter)
Mounting feet: max. 75 ft.lb (102 Newton.meter)
LKP-400:
Head sections: max. 150 ft.lb (200 Newton.meter)
Mounting feet: max. 150 ft.lb (200 Newton.meter)
VERY IMPORTANT: because stainless steel parts have the tendency to stick together
when submitted to mechanical stress, it is advisable to lubricate the threads before
assembling the bolts. You can use any grease or oil, but use of ‘MolyCote’ or ‘Moly-Lub’ is
highly recommended.
