System Assembly and Adjustment*<br />
Cap Seals<br />
Through hole fixing<br />
Fitting of the Cap Seals should be carried out after Bearing<br />
Adjustment has been completed.<br />
To fit the Cap Seals over the Bearings, the Carriage should be<br />
removed from the Slide, then the Cap Seals loosely assembled<br />
to the carriage plate utilising either the Through Hole fixing<br />
facility which is the default method for Hepco Carriages, or<br />
the Tapped Hole fixing facility which requires tapped holes to<br />
be provided in the carriage plate. Two sets of plastic inserts<br />
are included with each Cap Seal to cater for both methods.<br />
The Slide should be re-engaged with the Carriage and each Cap<br />
Seal adjusted in, until the felt wipers just make contact with the Slide<br />
'V' surface until smearing of the lubricant is observed when the<br />
system is operated. When adjusting the Cap Seal using the Through<br />
Hole fixing method, care should be taken to hold the plastic inserts<br />
to prevent them from moving whilst the screws are tightened.<br />
Greater sealing effect, at the expense of increased friction, may<br />
be achieved by adjusting each Cap Seal body in further until<br />
it's 'V' profile makes contact with the 'V' profile of the Slide.<br />
The fixing screws should be fully tightened and each Cap Seal<br />
charged with a No. 2 Lithium soap-based grease until grease<br />
is seen to overflow.<br />
Male grease connector, part No. CSCHF 4034 or complete<br />
gun is available from Hepco if required.<br />

Cap Wipers<br />
Fitting of the Cap Wipers should be carried out after Bearing<br />
adjustment has been completed.<br />
To fit the Cap Wipers over the Bearings, the Carriage should be<br />
removed from the Slide, then the Cap Wipers loosely assembled<br />
to the carriage plate utilising either the Tapped Hole fixing facility<br />
which is the default method for Hepco Slimline Carriages, or the<br />
Through Hole fixing facility which requires slotted clearance holes<br />
to be provided in the carriage plate for adjustment.<br />
The Slide should then be re-engaged with the Carriage and<br />
each Cap Wiper adjusted in, until the felt wipers just make<br />
contact with the Slide 'V' surface until smearing of the<br />
lubricant is observed when the system is operated.<br />
The fixing screws should be fully tightened and each Cap<br />
Wiper charged with a No. 2 Lithium soap-based grease until<br />
grease is seen to overflow.<br />
Male grease connector, part No. CSCHF 4034 or complete<br />
