limit switches/ position indicators must be removed before bakeout.
REMOVE AND ADJUSTMENT PROCEDURES
Z drive:
The Z drive motor is removed by first releasing the clamp screw on the drive shaft. This screw is accessed through a hole in the aluminum spacer between the
motor mounting flange and the gearbox. Once this coupling is released, the four socket head screws holding the motor can be removed and then the motor.
X & Y Drive:
Micrometer Drive:
Motor removal is simple. Loosen the clamp coupling to the motor shaft. Loosen the two clamp bolts holding the motor mount plate to the extended 3/8” shafts
and slide the motor plate/ motor assembly off. Remove the micrometer as per instructions under “bakeout”.
Limit Switches:
The limit switches are mounted in removable assemblies. Simply remove the two associated mounting screws and remove the plate.
On the X & Y limit switch assembly, note proper switch orientation. un-clamp the switch pod,. Slide the switch pod up off the “joystick”
actuator. It may be necessary to spread the switch actuators while re- assembling the switch pod.

Position indicators may be removed with limit switch mounting plates or individually as required. Care should be used upon re-assembly to
dress the wires as not to interfere with stage motion.
