These steps apply to typical mounting conditions. Although this

• Adjust drill depths and fastener lengths as required.
• Contact your Authorized ACU-RITE Distributor if assistance
is required.
First Steps:
1. Move the axis to its center of travel.

along the scale case to the center of the scale case.
4. Locate the bottom of the end cap flush with the axis parting line.
5. Mark one end mounting hole.
