Installation
Note: The magnetic way’s magnets exert strong magnetic attraction. Make sure that steel bolts
or wrenches are kept away from the magnets. Always use bolts with a head height
according to the dimensions shown in the following table.
4.
When joining magnetic ways together, place the second magnetic way
temporarily in line with and at least 30 mm apart from the first magnetic
way. Next, match the direction of the magnetic ways (using the
indentations as reference (approx. dia. 4 mm)). (Refer to the diagram in
step 2.) Next, while holding the magnetic ways down so that they are not
raised, push the second magnetic way against the first magnetic way
and secure it with bolts. The magnetic ways may snap together due to
the strong magnetism. Keep fingers clear to avoid injury.
Note: To ensure your safety, install the moving coil before installing the second and subsequent
magnetic ways. For details, refer to (2) Moving Coil Installation.
