4. Turn the two securing buttons to release the installed insert and remove the insert
(see Figure 7-1).
Q150T ES users only: If the insert is a carbon rod type you may have
to remove the rods first (see page 56). To do this, check that the
securing buttons are restraining the insert and open the lid assembly
and rest it against the top cover assembly. Then, using a 2.5mm hex
key, release the rod clamping screws and withdraw the rods. Close the
lid assembly and release the insert by turning the securing buttons.
Now remove the insert.
5. Prepare the sputter insert for installation by removing from any packaging, plastic
bags etc. Check the ‘O’ ring in the outer ring of the lid assembly for damage or
debris and clean or replace as required.
6. To fit a target (we recommend you wear latex gloves to do so):
a. Unscrew the target clamp ring (see Figure 7-2)
b. Place a new target centrally on the holder. Hold it in place with one finger
through the clamp ring.
c. Screw the clamp ring firmly back in place. If the target thickness is greater than
0.3mm then one or more spacers (Part No. A4117193) should be fitted
between the dark space shield and the sputter insert to maintain a 1.5mm gap
between the inside face of the dark space shield and the target clamp ring.
7. Place the insert in position in the outer ring of the lid assembly carefully locating
the M3 screw head in the rim of the insert in the slot to the right of the outer ring.
8. Lock the insert in position by turning the securing buttons until their flanges
overlap the insert.
9. Plug the sputter insert lead into the socket on the hinge assembly.
