3.3 Removing the Linear Motor Shaft Protective
Covers (M6S)
Remove the protective covers from the linear motor shaft for M6S modules.
3.3.1 Procedure
1. Open the seam in the protective cover and gently remove the protective cover.
2. Store the protective covers in a safe place. These covers should be used when items
such as maintenance is performed on a M6S module.
WARNING
People with a heart pacemaker should stay clear of the Y-axis.
A heart pacemaker could malfunction due to the strong magnetic
field generated by the linear motor for the Y-axis in M6S modules.
CAUTION
Be careful of magnetic attraction when using jigs/tools near the
linear motor of M6S modules.
Injury could result by the jig/tool being drawn towards the linear
motor.
Keep magnetic cards, wristwatches and other precision machines
away from the linear motor of a M6S module.
Damage to items may occur due to the magnetic field generated by
a linear motor.
