The result from this measurement program displays the difference between tightened and loosened bolt. You can go from softfoot check directly to the Horizontal or EasyTurn shaft alignment program and keep the entered machine distances. 1. Turn to position 12. Adjust the beams. Open the targets. Confirm [ Back ]
2. Release and tighten first bolt. Confirm Redo step 2 for each of the other feet (foot 2-4). [ If desired, zero set with [ Back ] ]
3. ROUGH ALIGNMENT
1. Turn shafts with measuring units to the 9 oclock position. Aim the laserbeams at the centre of the closed targets. 2. Turn shafts with measuring units to the 3 oclock position. (A=The arc described by the laserbeam from the M-unit during turning. B=The laser hits outside the detector area.) 3. Check where the laser hits, then adjust the beam half the distance towards the centre of the target (C). 4. Adjust the movable machine so that the laserbeam hits the centres of both the targets (D). 5. Open the targets before the measurement. Done.
3. The result for all feet are displayed. Shim the foot/feet with the highest value. [ Remeasure ]

With Program Horizontal (11) the measuring units with shafts are positioned 9, 12 and 3 oclock. This means that you turn the shafts a total of 180. With Program EasyTurn (12) you can start with the measuring units anywhere on the revolution. The smallest angle possible between the measurement positions is 20. NOTE! Check in each position (9, 12, 3) that the laser beam hits the detector area. 12 Min. 20 Min. 20 9 3 Program Horizontal (11) Program EasyTurn (12) Continue! w

The measurement result can be checked towards tolerance value table. This is based on the speed of the machine. When the alignment is within tolerance, the left part of the coupling symbol is filled. This also works live. 1. Select Speed range. No tolerance values are displayed from the start (the function is disabled every time the measurement system is started). Press or to select speed range. The tolerances are displayed at the same time. Confirm Speed range 2. The result is displayed with filled coupling for values which are within tolerance.
2. Second reading. Turn the shafts at least 20 in any direction (displayed as small marks on the circle). Alt. Horizontal: 12 oclock. Confirm [Show/hide M-angle mark with [ Redo first value ] ]

(In the example to the left the horizontal angular value is within tolerance.)
3. Third reading. Similar to second reading. Turn shafts beyond the 20 mark. Alt. Horizontal: 3 oclock. Confirm 3 oclock

Recommended procedure: first position the measuring units with shafts 12 oclock and shim according to the feet values (live). Then position the units 3 oclock (or 9) and adjust sideways (live values). *Horizontal values updates continuously. 4. The result is displayed. Horizontal and vertical positions for the movable machine are shown both digitally and graphically. [ By pressing when the measurement values are displayed, a new S-F2 distance can be entered for a third pair of feet. New F2-values (adjustment and shimming) will be calculated for this pair of feet and displayed. ] [ Press *Vertical values updates position ] continuously. [ Press result. ] [ Press [ Press to do a new measurement from the 9 oclock to select tolerance to check against the measured to set values for thermal growth compensation. ] for Live values in Horizontal program (see G below). ]

G. Indicator for measurement direction, that in the EasyTurn program shows the real position of the units. Note! In the Horizontal program the indicator shows how the units have to be positioned for live values. This is because the Horizontal program doesnt use the electronic inclinometers to detect the position of the units. H. *The foot symbols are filled for that direction (horizontal or vertical) in which the measurement values are updated live. Note! Be sure that the units are positioned in the right direction (3 or 12 oclock).
