Removal of the encoder with blanking plug

If a functional sensor is to be removed for a modification, pay attention to the follow-
ing:
– Touch connector pins and connection wires only if your body is suitably earthed,
for example via an ESD armband, to prevent damage to the electronic compo-
nents by electrostatic discharge.
 Disconnect the connection to the encoder.
 Release the connection cable from fixing points.
 Remove the blanking plug.
Ensure no foreign bodies fall through the hole into the housing.
 Undo the hex socket head screw and remove the encoder from the drive.
 After removing encoder, lightly screw back in the blanking plug to prevent damage
to the rotary encoder due to the entry of foreign bodies.
