Page 14: Cutting The Rklc40-S Scale
Cutting the RKLC40-S scale If required cut the RKLC40-S scale to length using a guillotine or shears. Using the guillotine Using the shears The guillotine should be held securely in place, using a suitable vice or clamping method. Feed the RKLC40-S scale through the first aperture on the shears (as shown). Once secured, feed the RKLC40-S scale through the guillotine as shown, and place the guillotine press block down onto the scale. -

5. Move the axis to the start of travel leaving enough room for the scale to be inserted through the applicator, as shown below. 12. Clean the scale using Renishaw scale wipes or a clean, dry, lint-free cloth. 6. Begin to remove the backing paper from the scale and insert the scale into the applicator up 13. -
