Head Installing

When installing the head on a Lotem 800 Quantum keep in mind the following:

DO NOT STAY IN THE SAME SPOT ON THE PLATE FOR LONGER THAN A FEW MINUTES!
MOVE THE HEAD/DRUM AN INCH OR SO EVERY FEW MINUTES WHILE INSTALLING THE HEAD!

The reason is that the plate gets exposed by the focus laser and your surface reflectivity changes, thus throwing all your readings out off range.

When installing the head with a new plate (other that the plates already defined in the head) your sr may be also way out (until you find the proper one) and this will only makes matters worse.

If running into any difficulties installing a TH2 with a new plate you may need to play with the sr and moving the spot on the plate, until you get close to the proper range.

For more information on installing a Thermal 2 head, refer to the Thermal 2 Installation page.
