Damage due to strong magnetic attraction
When mounting the movers on the rails, always hold them tight with
both hands. The magnetic plate set of the mover and the modules
strongly attract one another magnetically.
If you don't hold the movers tight with both hands, the magnetic
forces can attract the mover to the XTS in an uncontrolled manner,
so that components hit against one another and are damaged.
► Position mover 1 with encoder flag 2 centrally over the rail on
1
support 3 and tilted slightly forward
► Observe the name plate 4 and encoder flag 2 for orientation
In the view, the encoder flag is located on the opposite side of the

XTS when mounting the movers.

As soon as you place the magnetic plate set 1 of the mover 2 in the
vicinity of the module 3, the magnetic plate set and the module at-
tract each other magnetically.
► Then bring mover 2 back into the straight position
