Stick-On Markers for PurePrecision Laser Tape II (HPTS-) and Performance and Value
Linear Glass (PVGL-). (Not applicable to PurePrecision Marker Tape II Scales)
2.
Attaching the Index Marker to
the Scale
Place the top edge of the marker against the
benching edge, holding it at a 45° degree
angle as shown in the photo. This keeps the
adhesive away from the scale, until the
marker is the correct location, before being
pressed into place.
If the scale is installed with an offset from its
reference edge, a temporary reference edge
surface such as a small metal block must be
used for the index and limit markers.
When the marker is tight against the
reference edge, press the marker onto the
scale with your finger.

USE FINGER COTS or Gloves
NOTE:
Be sure to remove the blue protective film from the top of the tape scales
before applying stick-on index and limit markers.
For benching edge requirements, refer to the Interface Drawings for
OPS. The benching edge corresponds to the “D” reference edge in the
interface drawings.
