Notes on Installation
The stainless sheet is designed very thin (thickness: 0.1mm) in order to ensure flexibility. Therefore, the
stainless sheet is easily dented or scratched. Once dented or scratched, the stainless sheet may break during
use.
When installing the stainless sheet, make sure to the following points:
1. Do not press the sheet directly with
hands.
2. Protect the sheet from dents by making
sure not to drop tools and workpieces
onto the sheet.
3. Do not allow powder dust or iron powder to generate around the stainless sheet.
If it generates, wipe the stainless sheet fully after operation to remove all particles attached to the
sheet.
If the actuator is operated with the stainless sheet carrying foreign particles, those particles may
enter the slider and damage the sheet or cause the sheet to deform, lift or present other problems.
For SS and HS, the stainless sheet is held in place by means of a magnet on the side covers. Since
metal particles, iron powder or other magnetic substances in ambient air are likely to attach to the
magnets, make sure to the surrounding environment.
