Do not attempt to apply any external force to the body during front bracket mounting or flange (front) mounting. External force may cause malfunctions or damage to parts.

External force
When using front bracket mounting, flange (front) mounting, etc., if the device is mounted horizontally, fixed at a single point and has a stroke of 150mm or more, prepare a support block as shown in the figure below even if there is no external force applied on the body.
Even when the stroke is less than 150mm, a support block is strongly recommended in order to avoid vibration generated due to the operation conditions or installation environment, which may lead to abnormal operation or damage to parts.
For the support block, we recommend either using the optional foot bracket or keeping the support block (aluminum alloy, etc.) close against the block. The installation position should be on the frame motor side.

[Notes for using external guide with rod type]
Parallelism of actuator and external guide
When using an external guide, parallel misalignment (in the horizontal and vertical planes) between the actuator and the external guide could result in malfunction, premature wear, or damage to the actuator.
When mounting a guide, align the center of the actuator parallel to the guide. Following the installation,
make sure that the sliding resistance is constant over the entire stroke.
