General Remarks
1Requirements / Remarks
NOTE All tools, test equipment and aids, with the exception of the stan-
dard installation tool kit” are listed and specified in ARTD (Part 3).
Remarks 0
Damaged or worn parts may only be replaced with original parts.

If there is a malfunction, first check the mechanism of the drives.
Special attention should be paid to easy movement of all movable parts.
Jamming movement will cause a switch-off by the safety software.
Because of this, clean and lubricate rails and guide parts, check the chain and toothed
belt tension for the particular drive, check the function of the brakes, if needed clean them
of any wear residue and adjust the air gap.
Safety Information 0
CAUTION Health Hazard!

¹ Checks and adjustments that must be performed with
radiation switched on are labeled with the radiation warn-
ing symbol x . While performing adjustments labeled
this way, radiation protective clothing must be worn.
NOTE When carrying out the work steps and checks, the product-spe-
cific safety information contained in the documents as well as the
general safety information contained in ARTD must be observed.
Lubrication Locations 0
Prior to beginning the particular adjustments, the condition of all accessible chain and
geared drives, guide and roller bearings must be checked, and if necessary, lubricated
using Longtime PD2 (unless otherwise specified).
Adjustment of Bearings 0
Support and roller bearings are adjusted so that the roller bearing not under load can just
still be turned by hand.

6 Requirements / Remarks
Securing of Screws 0
All screws removed for adjustment purposes must be resecured to their original condition.
If securing a screw with Loctite is necessary, an exact reference is made to this in the text.
When working with Loctite, it is absolutely necessary to make sure that this securing
material does not penetrate into any bearings.
A bearing that would jam as a result of this would only become apparent days later.

Cassette Transport Problems
3General Remarks Regarding Cassette Transport
The following is required for reliable cassette transport:

• The tension of the “tension cassette” drive must be adjusted.
• The tension of the “cassette transport” belt must be adjusted.
• The plastic cover and the metal frame on the “I.I. cover” assembly must centered to
each other when installed.
• The middle wall may not be bowed; if needed, replace it with a new one.
NOTE The core of the new middle wall is made of aluminum and no
longer of wood. Its stability is now significantly better.
• No spacer nipples installed!

- If the spacer nipples have already fallen out in a spotfilm device (1/Fig. 6 / p. 16)
(scratches on the middle wall), reinsert them.
These can be sheared off during operation or when there is a service situation.
• The transport belt and the belt that runs with it must be free of grease and may not be
damaged.

General Remarks Regarding Cassette Transport 17
NOTE Hand creme on the cassettes have the same effect as greased
belts. With smooth cassettes, this can cause transport problems.
• The I.I. cover may not be bowed in either the table transverse or in the table longitudi-
nal direction.
• With large, sharp-cornered cassettes, the bow in the cassette may not be more than 1.5
mm, otherwise it can cause malfunctions.
• The cassette must be higher than the mechanism in the area of the tension arm mecha-
nism.
NOTE With the new I.I. cover panels, there are two raised points (seam
beads). These reduce the drag surface to the cassette (reduction in
friction).
In principle, the seam beads make the cassette 1-2 mm higher. If
this is not sufficient, the height of the cassette can be adjusted by
placing strips underneath it.

Explanation about (Fig. 12 / p. 29):
• Pulley on the operator’s side (1/Fig. 12 / p. 29)
• Drive wheel (2/Fig. 12 / p. 29)
• Operator’s side diaphragm plate (A/Fig. 12 / p. 29)
• Wall side diaphragm plate (B/Fig. 12 / p. 29)
Total length of belt = 1853 mm ± 1 tooth
• Belt length spacing of X to Y = 698 mm to be set (or next tooth of the toothed belt).
Insert the belt accordingly in the belt clamp (3/Fig. 12 / p. 29).
• The belt must extend at both ends by 2 teeth (3/Fig. 12 / p. 29) out of the belt clamp
(4/Fig. 12 / p. 29).
• The dimension of X to Z results automatically from the belt length.
• Lightly lubricate the glide pieces (10/Fig. 11 / p. 28) with silicon paste.
• Insert the collimator plate, with the drag plate it configured.
• Take note of the belt winding (Fig. 12 / p. 29).

Adjusting the Diaphragm Symmetry 6.3
Prerequisite
The symmetry can only be checked using an exposure made under specific conditions.
Expose a film as described in the SSW.
• Adjustment/ Calibration/ Spotfilm Device/ Diaphragm plates: Basic setting
Explanation:
1. The diaphragm plate opening results from the distance of the diaphragm plate (wall
side) to the photo-sensitive cell and an offset that can be influenced by the SSW.
2. The symmetry depends only on the position of the belt clamp (5/Fig. 12 / p. 29) on the
operator’s side diaphragm plate (A/Fig. 12 / p. 29).
Procedure:
• Remove the diaphragm plates.
• Mark the position of the belt clamp (5/Fig. 12 / p. 29) on the operator’s side diaphragm
plate (A/Fig. 12 / p. 29), move the belt clamp accordingly and secure it in place.
Perform the function check again:

Fig. 16: Iontomat chamber replacement

• Completely remove the middle wall (1/Fig. 16 / p. 36) on the operator’s side.
- When doing this, guide the Iontomat cable through!
- The Iontomat chamber is pressed tightly against the walls of the middle wall; because
of this, insert a ruler or a similar object between the plastic wall and the Iontomat
chamber at the top and bottom.
• The chamber can be slid out of the middle wall by inserting an approx. 25 cm long
screwdriver into an opening in the middle wall (2/Fig. 16 / p. 36) from the head end,
approx. in the middle of the Iontomat chamber.
• Install the new chamber in the reverse of the steps above. Be especially careful of the
connectors on the chamber.

IONTOMAT 37

When inserting the middle wall, it is absolutely necessary to lift the tension arms on
the wall side.
• If the spacer nipples have already fallen out in a spotfilm device (1/Fig. 17 / p. 37)
(scratches on the middle wall), they must be reinstalled.
These can be sheared off during operation or during a service situation.
• Insert the middle wall.
- To insert the middle wall, a pull wire should be attached to the Iontomat cable.
- When inserting it, the middle wall hits against a grabber block for the drag plate.
- The grabber block (visible from the operator’s side) must be lifted slightly; this can be
done using a ruler or a small piece of wood.
• Take note of how the cables are laid.
• Plug in the Iontomat connector and secure the cable loop with the cable tie
(3/Fig. 16 / p. 36).

Replacing the I.I. Cover Panel
9I.I. Cover Panel
The following is required for reliable cassette transport:

• The tension force of the “cassette tension” drive must be adjusted.
• The “cassette transport” belt tension must be adjusted.
• The plastic cover and the metal frame of the “I.I. cover” component must be centered to
one another when installed.
• The I.I. cover may not be buckled in either the table transverse or the table longitudinal
direction.
• With large, sharp-cornered cassettes, the cassette buckling may not be more than 1.5
mm, otherwise it can lead to malfunctions.
• In the area of the tension arm mechanism, the cassette must be higher than the mecha-
nism.
NOTE With the new I.I. cover panels, there are 2 raised locations (strips).
These minimize the contact surface to the cassette (lessening of
friction). In addition, the strips in principle raise the cassette 1-2
mm higher. If this is not sufficient, the height of the cassette can
be adapted by placing strips (Y/Fig. 18 / p. 39) underneath it.
• Remover all cover panels as shown (Access to the Spotfilm Device / p. 9).
Fig. 18:
• Remove the I.I. cover panel:
- To do this, remove the 4 countersunk screws (A/Fig. 18 / p. 39).
- The I.I. component group cover panel can now be removed towards the front.

40 I.I. Cover Panel
Fig. 19:
The two parts, the metal frame and the plastic panel, of the I.I. cover panel must be cen-
tered when installed.
To assure this, perform the following work steps.
• Remove the 4 Allen screws (1/Fig. 19 / p. 40) on both sides.
• Loosen the 3 Allen screws (2/Fig. 19 / p. 40).
• Loosen the nuts (3/Fig. 19 / p. 40) on both sides.
• Carefully insert the cover panel.
- When doing this, lift the plastic cover on the wall side, otherwise the cover will jam
against the I.I. or the tension mechanism.
• Insert the 4 Allen screws (A/Fig. 18 / p. 39).
• Carefully move the metal frame to the stop on the wall side.
• Tighten the middle Allen screws (2/Fig. 19 / p. 40).
• Remove the 4 Allen screws (A/Fig. 18 / p. 39).
• Carefully pull out the I.I. cover panel approx. 10 cm.
- When this is done, the plastic panel and the metal frame may not move towards one
another.
• Carefully lift the plastic panel and remove the protective film (4/Fig. 19 / p. 40) on the
adhesive strips.
• Press the plastic panel lightly onto the adhesive strips.
• Tighten the 6 Allen screws (1, 2/Fig. 19 / p. 40).
• Carefully pull out the I.I. cover panel completely.
• Tighten the nuts (3/Fig. 19 / p. 40) on both sides.
• Carefully lift the plastic cover panel and remove the protective film (5/Fig. 19 / p. 40) on
the adhesive strips.

I.I. Cover Panel 41
• Press the plastic panel lightly onto the adhesive strips.

• Under no circumstances may the I.I. cover panel have a belly in it in the area of the 3
drawn lines (Fig. 19 / p. 40). If necessary, lightly bend up the plastic panel and the
metal frame to remove the belly.
• Carefully insert the I.I. cover panel.
• Insert the 4 Allen screws (A/Fig. 18 / p. 39) and tighten them.
• Manually insert the largest available cassette and slide it into the park position.
• The lightly press down on the cassette and slide it in the direction of the load position.
• If the cassette hits against the tension mechanism in the area of X (X/Fig. 18 / p. 39)
place an aluminum strip underneath at Y (Y/Fig. 18 / p. 39).
- To do this, remove the 4 Allen screws (A/Fig. 18 / p. 39).
• Remove the protective film from the adhesive strip on the aluminum strip.
• Stick the aluminum strip on the plastic panel (there should be approx. 5 mm spacing
between edge X (X/Fig. 18 / p. 39) of the tension mechanism and the aluminum strip).
• Insert the 4 Allen screws (A/Fig. 18 / p. 39) and tighten them.
• Perform the test again, if necessary, place a 2nd aluminum strip underneath.
• After completing the work steps, reinstall the cover panels in the reverse order of the
instructions above.
