    Swipe Clearance Notice

    For

    Top Mount solutions

    top-mount placements, CCI strongly recommends mounting

    a

    the front of the top-mount

    solution

    bracket 1-1/4 inches from the front of the machine

    to the edge of the reader

    , to allow for card swipe clearance.

    Ensure the drilled hole aligns accordingly. Mounting the top-mount bracket any further back then 1-1/

    4 inches (1.25")

    4inches from the front of the machine to the edge of the reader can potentially interfere with mounting the reader to the bracket and may prevent users from being able to swipe or insert a card into the reader due to lack of clearance.

        Note
        titleScrewdriver Angling

        As the reader is angled downward inhigh-front solutions, securing the reader may require a thinner secure torx screwdriver or a flex extension for the appropriate torx bit to accommodate for the angle.

    2. Only F3 FasCard readers – Remove any plastic protectors (if still present) from the touchscreen or EMV chip insert label.

    Swipe Clearance

    Reminder

    Notice

    As stated above, only for

    Top Mount solutions, CCI strongly recommends mounting a top mount solution 1

    top-mount solutions the front of the top-mount bracket 1-1/4 inches from the front of the machine

    to the edge of the reader

    , to allow for card swipe clearance.

    Ensure the drilled hole aligns accordingly. Mounting the top-mount bracket any further back then 1-1/

    4 inches (1.25")

    4inches from the front of the machine to the edge of the reader can potentially interfere with mounting the reader to the bracket and may prevent users from being able to swipe or insert a card into the reader due to lack of clearance.

    In a top-mount solution, the process differs slightly from a front or high-front mounting solution. Our C-6452 bracket would be used in this

    application

    orientation.
