Scope of supply Check missing or damaged parts Check your delivery for completeness. If any parts are missing or became damaged during transport, contact the carrier, vendor or our service department immediately. Packaging Instructions for handling are printed on the packaging: Carton Symbol Explanation...
• Use of the vendor's original packaging Long-term storage Perform recurring inspections Check every six months that the XTS Hygienic is in good condition. Damage to the XTS Hygienic or failure to carry out maintenance work can shorten the service lives of the installed components and parts.
Mechanical installation WARNING Wear safety shoes Wear safety shoes when assembling the XTS Hygienic, as com- ponents may inadvertently fall down in the working area. Falling components can lead to serious injuries to the feet. Handle cutting tools carefully Use cutting tools with great care. Make sure that nobody in your immediate vicinity can be injured if the tool inadvertently slips.
Page 47
Mechanical installation Avoid dirt When assembling the XTS Hygienic, make sure that all parts are free from dust and dirt. Check that the machine bed has been manufactured correctly Check before assembling whether the distances between the locat- ing pins in the machine bed are correct.
Mechanical installation Preparation The illustration below gives you an initial overview of the compo- nents that you need for the mechanical installation of the XTS Hy- gienic in the configuration described here. Please note that the de- sign and composition of the components can deviate and that not all fastening materials are included in the scope of supply as standard.

Mechanical installation Guide rails Lock for mounting movers A 250 mm-long guide rail serves as a lock for mounting the movers on the guide rails. For the assembly, the lock should be replaced by a rail on support. Further information is given in the course of the mechanical instal- lation in the chapter Mover.
Page 61
Mechanical installation Align the rails to fit the modules The guide rails must be mounted on the modules in a certain alignment. To do this, position the bore holes in the rails over the tapped holes in the modules. If the alignment is wrong, the screws will not mate with the tapped holes in the modules and cannot be screwed in.
