Install new pad on each carrier:
8. Install the two insert alignment pins (supplied by Strasbaugh
with the machine) in the two alignment holes--one on each side
of the carrier bottom.
9. Place a new pad on the carrier bottom (backing side down) and
align its two notches with the alignment pins.
10. Peel back the backing two to three inches and fold it under
(toward the center of the pad).
11. While continuing to maintain hole alignment, press the
exposed adhesive portion of the pad down onto the carrier
bottom.
12. Lift the backed portion of the pad and peel off the remaining
backing.
13. Working from the previously placed portion of the pad, smooth
the remaining pad into place.
14. Remove the alignment pins.
15. Use a plastic roller to help smooth out bubbles.
Note: If you can’t get the bubbles out, start over with a new pad.
A quality product cannot be produced with a bubbled pad!
