Chapter 2: Installation

WARNING

: ECO225SL installation must be in accordance to instructions provided by this

manual and any accompanying documentation. Failure to follow these instructions could
result in injury or damage to the equipment.

2.1. Unpacking and Handling the Stage

WARNING

:

HEAVY!

It is the responsibility of the customer to safely and carefully lift and

move the ECO225SL.

l

Refer to

Section 1.3.

for stage mass specifications. Do not attempt to lift heavy loads

single handed.

l

Use care when you move the ECO225SL or you could negatively affect the performance
of it.

l

Lift this product only by the base.

l

Use lifting hardware if it has been provided (refer to

Figure 2-1

).

l

Use a cart, dolly, or similar device to move the stage to a new location.

l

For multi-axis assemblies, always lift the system by the lower axis.

l

Do not use the cables or the connectors to lift or move this product.

l

Make sure that all moving parts are secure before you move the ECO225SL. Unsecured
moving parts could shift and cause injury or damage to the equipment.

Carefully remove the stage from its protective shipping container. Gently set the stage on a smooth, flat,
and clean surface. Use compressed nitrogen or clean, dry, oil-free air to remove any dust or debris that
has collected during shipping.

Before you operate the stage, let it stabilize at room temperature for at least 12 hours. This will ensure
that all of the alignments, preloads, and tolerances are the same as they were when they were tested at
Aerotech.

Each stage  has a label listing the system part number and serial number. These numbers contain
information necessary for maintenance or system hardware and software updates. Locate this label and
record the information for later reference.
