5 Commissioning
5.1 General remarks
The HTR standard axle is always fully assembled and delivered mechanically operational.
If no HAUSER drive is provided, fit your motor-gear combination according to the applicable
manufacturer's instructions.
The installation position of the HTR is always vertical, unless specially designed otherwise.
If, following commissioning, it is noted that the travel range selected is too big or that there are
problem edges lying in the regular safety path, Chapter 5.2 shows how to adjust the equipment.
5.2 Setting limit stops
!

Fig. 5-1: Principle of the limit switch mechanism
Setting the positive limit stop (Retracted condition)
Check that the travel path of the axle is free.
Remove the cover from the limit switch mechanism (440)
Set linear axle to machine datum.
In manual mode, carefully travel up against the positive limit stop (fully retracted).
If the linear axle is in contact with the mechanical limit stop and the positive limit stop is not
recognised: Rotate the control cam against the limit switch for the positive limit stop until this
is activated.
If the linear axle recognises the positive limit stop too early, rotate the control cam away from
the limit switch and repeat the process described above until the required end position is
reached.
Setting the negative limit stop (Extended condition)
In manual mode, carefully travel up against the negative limit stop (fully extended).
If the linear axle is in contact with the mechanical limit stop and the negative limit stop has
not been recognised, rotate the control cam against the limit switch for the negative limit stop
until this is activated.
If the linear axle recognises the negative limit stop too early, rotate the control cam away
from the limit switch and repeat the process described above until the required end position is
reached.
The following working steps are best carried out with the drive switched on. They
should therefore only be carried out by trained and authorised personnel. Only
move at creep speed (< 2m/min) and - if possible - limit the driving torque. Check
that there are no unauthorised people in the danger area
