Installing the bearing block, floating bearing end
Until now, the bearing block at the floating bearing end has only been fixed in
place temporarily. Now loosen the relevant screws so that the bearing block
can move within the range permitted by the centre ring.
Now move the carriage to the floating bearing end. As you do this, the nut will
determine the position of the screw and thus bring the bearing block at the
floating bearing end into alignment (where strain is therefore at its lowest).
Use Button-Head Screws M6x45 to secure the bearing block to Profile 8
80x80 KGT in this position.
Installing the End Cap
To cover rotating parts, screw the End Cap to the bearing block where the
screw is not driven.
The collet mechanism and the lock nut (of the fixed bearing) protrude out of
the profile housing of the bearing block.
