Installation
Tightening Force
The tightening force applied to the Fiber Unit should be as fol-
lows:
Screw-mounting Model Cylindrical Model
Use a proper-sized wrench.
Cutting Fiber
• Insert a fiber into the Fiber Cutter and determine the length
of the fiber to be cut.
• Press down the Fiber Cutter in a single stroke to cut the fi-
ber.
• Cut a thin fiber as follows:
Connection
• Do not pull or press the fiber units. The fiber units withstand
tensile or compression force of 9.8 N or 29.4 N maximum.
• Do not bend the fiber unit beyond the permissable bending
radius given under Ordering Information.
• Do not bend the edge of the fiber units (excluding the E32-
T#R and E32-D#R).
• Do not apply excess force on the fiber units.
• The fiber head may break due to excessive vibration. A one
turn loop may reduce the effect of vibrations:
