3 First Steps
ATTENTION!
Damage to the system components due to incorrect assembly
sequence!
If you mount the system components in a different order, this could cause a
distortion of the system components.
» Pay attention to the assembly sequence specified.
» First of all, mount the sensor head on the stand.
» Fix the stand on the base plate afterwards.
INFORMATION
Before assembling the instrument, make sure that all system components are
in perfect condition. Check the devices for external damages such as
scratches or the like. In the case of a wrong delivery, damage or missing
parts, immediately inform your local Polytec representative, stating the serial
numbers of the instruments.
INFORMATION
Keep the assembly instructions for all components in a safe place.
3.3.1 Mounting the Sensor Head onto the Stand
ATTENTION!
Misalignment of the optics caused by shock!
The optics of the sensor head are highly sensitive. Its alignment can get
misaligned by shocks or vibrations.
» Protect the unpacked device from being shaken.
» Lock the transport lock before moving the sensor head.
» Do not place the sensor head on its cover.
» Only set up the instrument on a flat surface.
ATTENTION!
Damage caused by the sensor head suddenly being lowered!
If you place the sensor head too far forward on the stand, the sensor head
might lie on its bolt. If you move the sensor head to the correct position, the
bolt might slide off the stand which causes the sensor head to fall on the
stand.
» Carefully place the sensor head on the stand.
» Do not place the bolt of the sensor head on the stand.
