MOUNTING INSTRUCTIONS
Mounting Kit Items Included:
4 ea. - 3/8" 16 x 1.0" Length Socket Head Cap Screws,
Black Alloy.
4 ea. - 3/8" High Collar Spring Lock washer, Steel Zinc.
1 ea. 3/32" Hex Allen Wrench, Long arm.
Note: The ZR encoder can mount to many types of C face devices.
In these mounting instructions, we will refer to the device as a
motor.
Step 1
After carefully unpacking the unit, inspect to insure the motor
shaft is the correct size and free of all burrs or aberrations. Slide
the ZR Encoder over the motor shaft. DO NOT USE EXCESSIVE
FORCE: There is a rubber O-ring in the Encoder locking collar
that will provide a small amount of resistance as it engages the
shaft. If the encoder does not slide easily See Note 1 below.
Step 2
Install the four 3/8" 16 x 1.0" socket head cap screws with lock washers
through the holes in the Encoder C face and tighten securely to the motor.
Step 3
Insure the shaft locking collar is flush with the Encoder cover plate. Prevent
the motor shaft from turning (See Note 2 for additional information) and
tighten the four 4-40 Allen head cap screws in the locking collar evenly in a
crossing pattern. See Figure 1. Make sure the screws are securely tightened and
the front of the locking collar remains flush with the encoder cover plate. If the
collar does not turn true when the motor shaft is rotated, loosen the four screws
and repeat the procedure.
In Case of Difficulty:
Note 1: Make sure the four 4-40 Allen head cap screws in the front of the
Encoder locking collar are loose and the collar is not cocked or jammed.
Clean the shaft of any burrs using fine crocus cloth. The O- ring in the
Encoder locking collar may need a small amount of additional lubrication.
Note 2: When tightening the screws in the locking collar avoid holding the
motor shaft with anything that may scar or burr the shaft.
