INSTALLATION
2.0 Inspection and Unpacking
Inspect shipping container for external damage. All claims for damage (apparent or concealed) or partial loss of shipment
must be made in writing to Dynapar within (5) days from receipt of goods. If damage or loss is apparent, please notify the
shipping agent immediately.
Open shipping container and locate the packing list. The packing list is included to verify that all components, accessories,
and manual were received. Please use the packing list to check off each item as the unit is unpacked. Inspect for damage. We
recommend that the shipping container be retained for future shipping, storage, or return to factory purposes.
If any equipment was damaged in transit, be sure to file proper claims promptly with the carrier and insurance company.
Please advise us of such filing. In case of parts shortages, advise us immediately. Dynapar cannot be responsible for any
missing parts unless notified within 60 days of shipment.

To prepare the motor facing and shaft for installation, perform the following steps. See Figure 2.
1.
Clean outer rim and mounting surface of motor facing and shaft of paint, grease, dirt, and other debris where

SL85 unit contacts motor or accessory. Also ensure that mating surfaces have not been damaged and that
unit will fit squarely on motor.
2.
Apply a thin layer of corrosion preventative or oil to motor facing and shaft to aid assembly and provide some corrosion
protection.
CAUTION!
Ensure there is no paint, burrs, protrusions, or deformations on the motor facing or
shaft. If the enclosure does not fit squarely on the motor facing, the alignment between
the encoder frame and the magnetic pulse wheel may be degraded.
