How to Install the MCU Unit

This guide provides detailed instructions for mounting and securing the MCU unit, including specific fastener types, quantities, and required torque specifications for a robust installation.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Torx T30 wrench, Torx T25 wrench, Socket wrench SW10, Socket wrench SW13, Torque wrench

Supplies needed:

M12x20 screws (4), M12 nuts (4), M8 nuts (4), M8 washers (4), M8x16 screws (4), M6x12 screws (6), 4.5x8 screws (6), M5x10 screws (6), M6 nuts (4), Gaskets (2), CCI06 brackets (optional, for bayed variant), CNT05 (optional, for alternative fixation)

  1. Prepare Mounting Hardware and Tools

    Gather all necessary fasteners including M12x20 (A), M12 (B), M8 (C), M8 (D), M8x16 (E), M6x12 (F), 4.5x8 (G), M5x10 (H), M6 (J), and gaskets (K, L). Ensure you have the required tools: Torx T30, Torx T25, Socket Wrench SW10, Socket Wrench SW13, and a calibrated torque wrench.

  2. Install Primary Fixation Points

    Secure the main mounting points of the MCU unit. Use the M12x20 screws (A) and M12 nuts (B) and tighten these connections to a torque of 10-15Nm. Next, attach the M8 nuts (C), M8 washers (D), and M8x16 screws (E) to their designated positions. Apply a torque of 8-10Nm for connections involving C and D, and 15-20Nm for connections involving E, as indicated in the diagram.

  3. Complete Secondary Fixation and Gasket Installation

    Fasten any remaining components using the M6x12 screws (F) and M6 nuts (J), tightening to 4-5Nm. Secure additional points with 4.5x8 screws (G) and M5x10 screws (H), applying a torque of 4-5Nm. IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTE: Ensure the gasket (K, L) is fixed *outside* the corner holes. This is critical, especially for MCU units 1000mm or wider. If using the bayed variant, install CCI06 brackets (ordered separately). For alternative fixation, install CNT05 (ordered separately) with a torque of 4.5-5Nm.
