Original instructions
Ensure the mounting aid is in the unlocked position.
Use a 4 mm hex key to engage the lock mechanism.
Apply light hand pressure against the mounting aid and secure it to the
extrusion using a 4 mm hex key.
Slide the readhead away from its installation position and fix the mounting aid
to the extrusion – see steps 3 and 4.
14.5 Installation using the mounting
aid method
Remove alignment brackets prior to installation
using the mounting aid.
When mounting a readhead to a machine slideway
via an unconstrained bracket, an installation
mounting aid can be used to accurately position,
secure and fit the bracket to the slideway. The
mounting aid clamps securely to the extrusion,
allowing any machine slideway to be adjusted and
secured horizontally in the correct location before
readhead mounting.
37 mm mounting aid and 4 mm hex key
required.
