5.7 Installing the stator
On delivery, the stator has already been installed and is ready for operation.
If necessary, the antenna segments can be divided from the antenna
segment clamp for maintenance or to facilitate stator mounting.
We recommend to use the stator ring as it is and to only open if absolutely
necessary.
When the flexible antenna segments are bent, they easily deviate from
circularity.
Prevent the antenna segments from a large deformation while bending.
While opening the stator ring, bend the antenna segments only as wide as
necessary to slip them over a thin part of the shaft nearby.

1. Undo and remove the bolted connections (M4) on the Antenna segment
clamp.
There are fan type lock washers (or toothed washers) between the antenna
segments: Make sure that they do not get lost.
