2-7. Replacing the Z-Slide Shaft
When the Z-slide shaft has been replaced, it is necessary to input the MS parameters related to
the θ-axis and Z-axis home position adjustment, Z-axis height, and laser again.
(For details about input items, see section 2-8.)
1) Remove the hollow setscrew c (×1) from the lower portion of the coupling.
2) Detach the Z-slide shaft from the Z-slide bracket.
3) Reassemble the components in the reverse order of disassembly.
∗ Secure the coupling with it kept pushed-in and make sure that any vertical play does not exist
on the slide shaft.
∗ When tightening the setscrews of the coupling, align the flat part of the slide shaft with the
orientation of the coupling setscrew. Tighten the setscrew with a tightening torque of 0.5 N⋅m.
