5.1.2 Installation of the effective load
Hard and rigid effective loads (e.g. steel):
Note
If the aluminium slide is bent against a curved effect-
ive load, the service life of the guide will be reduced.
• Make sure that the mounting surface of the effect-
ive loads is even to within t ≤ 0.01 mm.
If additional slides are used, possible differences in
height must be compensated for.

t
• Place the effective load in such a way that the break-down
torque resulting from force F (parallel to the axis of motion) and
lever arm “a” remains small.

• Fasten the effective load to the slide with the screws and cent-
ring sleeves.
• Make sure that the tightening torques and maximum screw-in
depth D is adhered to.

Effective loads with own guide:
• Adjust the guides of the effective load and of the DGC-HD so that they are exactly parallel.
This avoids overloading of the guide and increased wear.
