Manually mounting / removing RFP1 from REVO-2
NOTE: Mounting / removal of RFP1 to / from REVO-2 should be carried out using a VPCP and automatic change cycle. If it is necessary to manually attach / detach RFP1 use the following procedure.
- Align the front of the head with the probe (look at the 'Renishaw' engraving on the front of probe or alignment marks as applicable).
- Carefully slide the RFP1 up, then horizontally forwards onto the REVO-2 head, ensuring the counterweights do not foul the head as they pass.
- Carefully align the probe to the head, allowing the magnetic attraction to gently connect the kinematic joints.
- To detach, securely hold the probe and gently tilt to break the kinematic joints. Removal is the reverse of step 2.
