Mounted both motors on CARME. Started with outside motor. M6x160 screws proved slightly too long to fix bellows to rod and seal the vacuum. Had to be manually shortened by 1 cm roughly. Mounted whole assembly but could not fix actuator rod to moving plate due to holes mis-alignment. Mounted motor on CARME but could not align holes on flange and chamber without turning motor to the side... see attach 3 and 4 Got in contact with Peter over lunch and understood issue. Mounted second motor with experience acquired. No issues. All screws go in. Motor box level. See attach 5 Will need to dismount / remount first motor box before pumping down. Currently secure on CARME thanks to adjustable support. Note we forgot to buy DN 40 CF gaskets. ML supplied a few. Will buy more. Needed between bellows and rod. Strain relief mentioned in previous ELOG entry was taken to workshop and hole re- drilled. Workshop reports other hole is OK for M3 screw. Either screw used or hole were poorly machined. M3 screws should be correct. Re-machined part sent for cleaning. Will try with clean parts again tomorrow unless we remount motors. Activities for the day cut shorter due to SPARC meeting this week.
