6. Clip the loose end of the chain back onto itself.
The bracket should now be tight upon the shaft. Do not push or pull on
the bracket to check because this could loosen its mounting.
To remove the brackets, turn the thumbscrew counter-clockwise, and
then remove the chain from its anchor peg.
Note
The compact chain-type brackets cover most situations, but in cramped or
special cases, other types of brackets may be required.
2.3 Mount the laser and sensor
Mount the laser on the support posts of the bracket fixed on the shaft of the
left machine (usually the reference machine), and the sensor on the support
posts of the bracket fixed on the shaft of the right machine (usually the
moveable machine)—as viewed from a normal working position.
Procedure
1.
Before mounting the laser and sensor, ensure that the yellow clamping
levers are in the open position by pointing them to the front of the laser
and sensor as shown in Figure 2-2. This enables the laser and sensor to
slide onto the support posts.

2. Fix both the laser and sensor onto the respective support posts by locking
the yellow clamping levers. Lock the levers by pushing them backwards
until they rest on the stoppers. Ensure the laser beam can pass over or
through the coupling and is not blocked.
