Mounting and Connecting Chapter 4

• For stages 1 meter (39.3 in.) or longer, use support straps at the 1/4

and 3/4 length points to avoid distorting the base. Use this support

system whenever the linear stage must be lifted.

6. Move the linear stage to a solid support surface before removing the

shipping brace.

7. Remove the four socket-head cap screws (SHCS) from the shipping brace.

The figure below lists the correct hex wrench for each linear stage.

8. Lift the shipping brace off the linear stage and set it aside.

9. Remove the plastic wrap enclosing the linear stage and set it aside.

10. Remove the four SHCS that secure the shipping clamp.

11. Remove the four square nuts loosened in the previous step, by sliding each

nut to the end of channel.

ATTENTION: The carriage is free to move once the shipping brace is removed.

Use additional care when handling the linear stage after the brace is removed.

Unexpected carriage movement can cause personal injury.
