8.4. Lockout mechanism
The lockout mechanism can be secured with padlocks (see Fig. 1 ). This is intended to prevent people from being locked in
unintentionally. The lockout mechanism does not fulfill any safety function.

8.5. Wire front release (bowden)
Release via a pull wire. Depending on the type of attachment, the wire front release can be used as an emergency release
or escape release.
The following applies to non-latching wire front releases.
If the release is to be used as an emergency release, one of the following measures must be
taken (see EN ISO 14119:2013, section 5.7.5.3):
Ì Install the release so that it can be reset only with the aid of a tool.
Ì Alternatively, the reset can be performed at the control system level, e.g. by means of a plau-
sibility check (status of the safety outputs does not match the guard locking control signal).
The emergency-release specifications in chapter 8.2 on Page 14 apply irrespective of this
information.
Important!
Ì The wire front release meets the requirements of Category B according to EN ISO 13849-1:2015.
Ì The correct function depends on the laying of the pull wire and the attachment of the pull handle, and
this is the responsibility of the plant manufacturer.
Ì The handle module must not be under tensile stress during manual release.
8.5.1. Laying wire front release
Important!
Ì Loss of the release function due to mounting errors, damage or wear.
Ì Check the release function every time after mounting.
Ì When routing the wire front release, ensure that it operates smoothly.
Ì Observe the min. bending radius (100 mm) and minimize the number of bends.
Ì The locking module must not be opened.
Ì Observe the notes on the enclosed data sheets.
