apply even pressure over the entire tape scale length by sliding a glove or cot-protected finger
across the scale. The applied pressure will ensure that the adhesive is set evenly and permanently.
Performing this operation more than once is not necessary but will not have an adverse effect.
7. Peel off the blue protective film:
•
Start the peeling process using a sharp tool, being careful not to damage the scale
.
•
Pull off remaining blue film and discard.
8. After removing the blue protective film, the scale is ready for use and will perform to specification.

proper encoder operation.
