5. Once all motors are mounted on the system, adjust any motors as necessary to make
sure of consistent spacing between the motors and to make sure that the tops of all
motors are coplanar to each other.
Align and Secure Motors and Switches
Once all motors and switches are properly located, either after initial installation or after
maintenance or replacement, the rails on the motors must be aligned from motor to motor (or
motor to switch). When aligning and securing the ends of the rails together, a V-brace (see
V-brace Kits on page 179) is attached over the alignment features on both rails on each motor.
NOTE: To align and secure railless motors, see Align and Secure Railless Motors on
page 261.

1. Loosen the M6 bolt used to secure the motor to the motor mount for all motors being
adjusted if necessary.
2. For aluminum rails, install the V-braces at all guide rail joints using M6 x 12 mm
screws and tighten finger-tight to pull the rails together.
NOTE: The guide rail joints on the aluminum rails contain locking inserts, which
limit the depth of insertion when finger tightening.
For stainless steel rails, install the V-braces at all guide rail joints using M6 x 12 mm
screws with Loctite 243 and tighten finger-tight to pull the rails together.
