Installing the Code Reel
The code reel is made of silicone-free polyester film. A position marker appears every 100 mm
along the lower edge of the code reel (see "Dimensions, Code Reel"). This position marker is
used for various functions including precise positioning of the code reel during assembly.
The reverse side of the code reel carries a permanent modified acrylate-based adhesive. Affix
the self-adhesive code reel along the desired travel range. Proceed as follows:
Installing the Code Reel
1. Clean the surface of any greasy or oily deposits and dust.
2. Ensure that the surface is dry, clean, and stable.
3. Pull the protective foil at the beginning of the code reel a few centimeters forward. Place the
code reel at the precise point of the required starting position on the underside, and press to
attach.
4. Then affix the code reel along the desired travel range. Remove the protective film gradually
so that the code reel does not accidentally adhere to the surface in the incorrect position.
When affixing, ensure that the code reel does not crease or trap air bubbles.
The adhesive on the code reel hardens after 72 hours.

Thermal Expansion of the Code Reel
The heat expansion coefficient of the attached code reel corresponds to the heat expansion
coefficient of the underside.
