11.3 Handling the Stainless Sheet
The stainless sheets of the mid-size models N15SS, N15SM, N15HS, N15HM, M19SS and M19SM are
held in position by the attraction forces of rubber magnets provided on the side covers. If ambient air
contains a lot of magnetic substances such as iron powder, these magnetic substances may be attracted
to the rubber magnets and enter the space between the stainless sheet and magnets, thereby causing
problems. Therefore, avoid using the actuator in an environment where the actuator will come in contact
with a high level of magnetic substances.
x If viscous substances such as adhesives and paints attach to the stainless sheet, slider malfunction or
sheet damage may occur. Prevent viscous substances from contacting the actuator.
x Take note that applying a force only to a specific part of the stainless sheet may cause the affected part
to deform and create various problems. Also, do not grip or hold the stainless sheet when installing or
transporting the actuator, as it may damage the sheet.
x Be careful not to let a tool or work drop onto the actuator to dent the exterior of the actuator.
Do not press the sheet directly with hands.
