1-4. Replacing the Magnescale
Before replacing the magnescale, leave a new magnescale near the machine for 1 hr.
or longer so that its temperature becomes the same as that of the machine.
(1) Detach the magnescale head from the bracket.
(2) Peel off the old magnescale.
(3) Degrease the magnescale mounting surface and magnescale completely.
It is recommended to use "Mechafine Mate" for the degreasing agent.
