Mounting Screw Clearance

The printed-circuit board assembly (PCBA) is very close to the mounting holes.
Figure 3-8 specifies the clearance between the screws in the mounting holes and
the PCBA. Do not use mounting screws longer than the maximum lengths
specified in Figure 3-8. The specified screw length allows full use of the mounting-
hole threads, while avoiding damaging or placing unwanted stress on the PCBA.
Clearance from the drive to any other surface (except mounting surfaces) must be
a minimum of 1.25 mm (0.05 inches).
Figure 3-8
CAUTION: The PCB is very close to the mounting holes. Do not exceed the specified
length for the mounting screws. The specified screw length allows full
use of the mounting-hole threads, while avoiding damaging or placing
unwanted stress on the PCB.
Figure 3-8 specifies the minimum clearance between the PCB and the
screws in the mounting holes. The maximum torque applied to the
screws must not exceed 8.7 inch-pounds.
