ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION Caution: Before assembling, installing, or connecting any components, follow the safety information in the ETS-Lindgren Product Information Bulletin included with your shipment. Electrical installation must be performed by a qualified electrician, and in accordance with local and national electrical standards. Make sure the power is off and secured before proceeding.
INSTALLATION Caution: Before assembling, installing, or connecting any components, follow the safety information in the ETS-Lindgren Product Information Bulletin included with your shipment. Proper installation of the MAPS directly affects performance. The installation must be performed by factory installation specialists or individuals authorized by ETS-Lindgren to perform installation.
Reference Point Note: If installing the MAPS in an existing chamber: Remove the absorber from the floor and lower wall areas prior to installation to avoid damage to the absorber. Locate the reference point. It is generally located along the bore axis of the range antenna. See Bore Sight and Leveling on page 29 for additional information regarding bore sight.
System Installation Caution: Fiber optic cables must be connected correctly for motor base function. Before removing fiber optic cables from the motor base, label the replacement locations for accurate reconnection. Remove the wood deck. The drive units are designed to move from the shipping container to the chamber floor as a single unit. If you cannot move it as a single unit without causing damage, separate the upper drive unit.
Anchor Plate Installation 1. The anchor plates are held in place by 1/4–20 screws and set collars. Screw the anchor plates to the floor using 14x1 square socket flat head screws. 2. Drill pilot holes for these screws, and make sure to vacuum shavings to provide good contact with the floor. Continue mounting the remainder of the plates.
Sliding the Belt onto the Mast Caution: Do not over tighten the belt. See Using the Tension Scale to Measure and Set Belt Tension, below. 1. Slip belt onto motor box gear. 2. Clamp down mast using the three knobs.
Using the Tension Scale to Measure and Set Belt Tension Caution: Do not over tighten the belt. Over tightening will reduce overall performance and cause component failure. The belt does not require a high degree of tension for normal operation. Caution: Using the included tension scale, follow the steps in this section to set the belt tension for the MAPS: 48 oz maximum.

2. Attach the extension to the tension scale, and then insert the end of the extension into the tensioner aperture located on the belt tensioner. 3. Pull the belt tensioner to the right with the scale until the scale reads 48 oz. This is the maximum belt tension recommended.

Leveling and Height Adjustment If, during the bore sight process, it is determined that the unit must be leveled or the height adjusted, follow these steps. Loosen collar on the anchor shafts 1. Use a 3/16 hex key wrench to loosen the collar on the anchor shafts. Remove flange nuts, then raise or lower leveling bolts 2.
5. Verify that the unit is level. Attach the wooden turntable top 6. Position the wooden turntable top on the turntable base. 7. Use a 5/16 Allen wrench to tighten the bolts. 8.
