WARNING!
Loss of safety function due to the incorrect installation of the escape
release!
If the escape release pin is accessible from the outside, the guard locking
device can be released from the outside and the safety gates opened, al-
though the hazardous machine is switched on.
Depending on the application, serious injury or death may result.
The escape release should be installed so that it is only accessible from in-
side the danger zone.
It is also important to refer to the maintenance instructions (see chapter en-
titled Maintenance)
Shorten the escape release pin
The escape release pin can be shortened, if required, so that it does not extend too much
into the danger zone.
NOTICE
Inside the danger zone, the escape release pin must protrude at least 65
mm from the profile. After installation, the escape release must be checked
for proper operation. When shortening the escape release pin, the material
of the escape release must not exceed a temperature of 100 °C

NOTICE
Please note that the escape release pin must not be shorter than 45 mm, to
guarantee the full holding force.
