A securing arrangement for transporting and mounting a measuring system used for the determination of the position of two components, which can be moved relative to each other. The securing arrangement includes a base body, which is linearly displaced along a displacement direction via a guide track of a support body of a measuring graduation of the measuring system and is fixed in place on the support body by clamping forces in order to maintain a mounting base that fastens a scanning device to one of the two components in a desired position in relation to the support body. A service element is provided on the base body and having an operating section for introducing and/or canceling the clamping forces, wherein the operating section of the service element laterally protrudes past a surface of the base body which faces away from the support body and is laterally bordered by a lateral edge, when the base body is fastened on the support body.
