Mounting a Tip
NOTICE
Damage of the mechanics from torques at the tip
Avoid generation of torques when mounting or changing the tip.
INFORMATION
The supplied tips make it possible to realize different mechanical connections to a load:
A flat tip allows a wide-area connection to a load.
A spherical tip allows a punctiform connection to a load.
To achieve optimum repeatability:
Use a tip.
Make sure that the selected tip is completely screwed in and does not have any backlash.
The tip is used to establish contact with the load. On delivery, the tip is
not
preassembled.
The scope of delivery includes a tip with flat and hemispherical contact surfaces. An M6 inner
thread is provided for mounting the tip in the pusher.
Requirements
You have read and understood the general notes on installation (p. 13).
The pusher has been moved out so that you can easily reach the tip.
In the delivery state, the pusher is moved out.
