10.3 Stop positioning
The stop position is specified by entering the corresponding target value via the keyboard of the P40 control,
whereby the positioning process is triggered by means of the
START button.
IMPORTANT! The stop positioning system is not a feed unit! Neither workpieces nor other ob-
jects may be fed or transported away with the stop system.
Caution: Danger of crushing! During automatic stop positioning, pay attention to the existing
crushing hazard between the moving parts. Keep persons and body parts out of the danger
areas! In case of danger, press the emergency stop immediately!
