For degreasing, use an adequatelyvolatile detergent (e.g., industrialalcohol).(3) Carefully adhere the steel tape from theend with care not to let it bend or sag, whilegradually peeling the release paper fromthe steel tape.(4) Have the steel tape settle on the rail by rubbingthe tape. The adhesive strengthincreases with time. The adhering tape canbe peeled off by pulling its end upward.(5) Mount the LM block onto the LM rail usingthe LM block mounting/removing jig.(6) Attach the end pieces on both ends of theLM rail and further secure the steel tape.When securing the end pieces, fasten onlythe setscrew on the top face of each endpiece.(The tap on the end face of the end piece isused for mounting bellows.)Note1) The setscrew on the side face is used to lightlysecure the bent steel tape. Be sure to stop fasteningthe screw as soon as it hits the end face, and do notforce the screw further.Note2) Since the steel tape is a thin steel plate, mishandlingit may cause an accident such as cutting your finger.When handling it, take an effective safety measuresuch as wearing rubber gloves.Steel tape: SPEnd piece: EPFig.6LM block mounting/removing jigSteel tapeFig.7Mounting surfaceFig.8Fig.9LM blockLM block mounting/removing jigFig.10LM blockRelease paperSteel tapeDo not make an acute angleIndustrial TechnologiesSteel tape: SPSetscrewEnd piece: EPTap for attaching a bellowsFig.11A1-344
