[3] Move the slider and check the tension of the stainless sheet along the entire stroke.
If the conditions in Checkpoints 1 and 2 are not satisfied, loosen the screws and readjust the position
and tension of the stainless sheet again from [1].
Note) If the condition in Checkpoint 2 cannot be met after the readjustment, try installing the stainless sheet
in the reverse direction or placing it upside down. If the stainless sheet is still not adjusted properly,
replace it with a new sheet.
[4] When proper clearances are obtained between the slider body and stainless sheet and an absence of
contact between the two is confirmed, tighten the two screws on the loose end alternately, and then finally
tighten all screws to a uniform torque to securely affix the stainless sheet. If the screws are not tightened
uniformly, the sheet may meander or lift.
[5] Remove the clearance-checking tool and install the slider covers.
Note) Again, make sure not to lose the coil springs and spacers.
Checkpoint 1:
Check if the clearance between the top face of the stainless sheet and the back of the
clearance-checking tool falls within the specified range along the entire stroke.
Checkpoint 2:
Look through the peripheral openings and confirm that the stainless
sheet edges do not contact the slider body.
Move the slider back and forth at least three times over the entire stroke
to ensure the edges do not contact the slider.
The sheet may move during the slider strokes, but slight movement is
acceptable as long as the offset does not increase and the sheet does
not contact the slider.
If the stainless sheet contacts the slider, repeat the adjustment from [1].
The stainless sheet is not perfectly straight, but it bends to the right and
left slightly.
It is impossible to adjust the right and left clearances perfectly uniform.
Slight variation in clearance in the stroke direction or between the right
and left is acceptable, as long as the stainless sheet edges do not
contact the slider body over the entire stroke.

Apply additional torque to the screws on both ends until the stainless sheet no longer moves.
Tightening torque: SA5C/SA6C/SA7C/SS7C: 87.2N·cm (8.90kgf·cm) (Standard)
45.5N·cm (4.64kgf·cm) (Cleanroom specification) [Reference value]
SS8C/HS8C: 204N·cm (20.8kgf·cm) (Standard)
106N·cm (10.8kgf·cm) (Cleanroom specification) [Reference value]
