Mounting the movers on the guide rail

Installation instructions
eXtended Transport System Start-Up
1.) First release both socket head screws at the motor module
lock with an Allen key (size 3) by turning them clockwise.
2.) Remove the lock cover by lifting it. Avoid contaminating or
damaging the released screws or the lock cover. Work in a
clean and largely dust-free environment.
Attention: Please note that the edges that are now
accessible are very sharp and not chamfered. Risk of cuts!
3.) The three alignment pins on the lock module can be
removed and put to one side if necessary. Next, place the red
feed aid on the guide rail. Fasten it with the two socket head
screws (size 3) and an Allen key.
4.) Now place the mover on the guide rail. Hold the mover
straight over the motor module and insert it slowly onto the
guide rail, without forcing it. If the permanent magnets of the
movers and the motor modules have a magnetic field, both
components will automatically attract each other.
Attention: Risk of injury by crushing
