Changing Jaw Sets
The Manipulator has five (5) standard jaws from which to choose. All offer unique characteristics and
advantages for different operating requirements. The jaws are easily interchangeable without using any
tools using a toolless quick connect mechanism. To remove the V Jaw, Parallel Jaw, Sampler Jaw, and
the Cutter, follow the steps listed below. Installation of the replacement jaw is just the reverse procedure.
1. Close the jaws to approximately halfway of its stroke as shown in Figure 2
a
below. If for any
reason no jaw is attached to the manipulator, position the drive shaft approximately 30mm [1.2
inch] from the knurled nut as shown in Figure 2
