5.3.1.3 Mounting of steel and brass bolt caps
We recommend using the HIWIN assembly tool to ensure correct mounting of the steel and brass cover caps. 
Information on this can be found in Section 11.2.
 X Position the press-in piston [4] (see Fig. 5.20) centred over the bolt cap [3]. 
 X Move out the press-in piston by tightening the screw [1] until the stamp makes contact with the cover cap and some 
resistance can be felt when tightening the screw. 
 X Before actually pressing in the cover cap, check to make sure the cover cap has not tilted. 
 X Press in the cover cap by continuing to tighten the screw [1] until the press-in piston makes contact with the profile 
rail.
