Use a 4 mm hex wrench to install three supplied M5 x 10 screws to secure the plate.
Tighten the screws to a torque of 4.5 N·m (40 in-lb). Repeat the process for the second
plate. Note that the plates can be installed in a number of different positions, depending
on how much you need to limit the range of Joint 2.
NOTE: The two hardstop sides do not have to be in the same position, so the
workspace does not have to be symmetrical.
