When two or more magnetic ways are used, first install one of the
magnetic ways, and then install the moving coil in the available space.
If using only one magnetic way, and the linear guide is not long
enough extend up to the position needed to temporarily place the
moving coil in line with the magnetic way, mount a dummy linear guide
to the actual linear guide as shown in the figure below.
