NOTE: For instructions on how to use the scale
installation tool, download the RTL scale installation
tool (A-9589-0420) user guide (Renishaw

IMPORTANT:
If manually installing
the scale using fingers, suitable
gloves should be worn to protect
against injury from sharp edges.
8 Clean FASTRACK and scale
using a lint-free cloth.
Scale datum
The datum clamp fixes the RTLC20 scale rigidly to the substrate at the location chosen.
CAUTION: The metrology of the system may be compromised if the datum clamp is not used.
The datum clamp does not need to be fitted adjacent to a reference mark. It can be positioned anywhere
along the axis depending upon the customer’s requirements.
Mechanical clamp
Adhesive clamp
Using dispensing tip P-TL50-0209 apply Loctite 435
between the scale and the
FASTRACK carrier so it
wicks underneath adjacent to user selected datum
location as shown.
NOTE: Drawing shows the scale datum adjacent to
the chosen reference mark.
NOTE: When the reference mark and
datum clamp are aligned as shown,
the reference output will be positionally
repeatable with respect to the substrate.
