Preparing the 2000 mm mounting rail for installation
To prepare the 2000 mm mounting rail for installation, proceed as follows:
1. Cut the 2000 mm mounting rail to the required length.
2. Mark the holes. The necessary dimensions can be found in the table "Dimensions for the drill
holes":
– Two drill holes at the beginning and end of the mounting rail
– Additional drill holes at equal intervals of 500 mm maximum, along the identification
groove
3. Drill the marked holes according to the selected type of fastening.
4. Ensure that there are no burrs or shavings on the mounting rail.
