The connecting plate for the brake as well as the brake disc must be checked for dimensional
accuracy. For this purpose, the connection dimensions shown on the catalogue data sheet or
installation drawing are to be checked. The standard distance between the connecting plate and
the centre of the brake disc is 73 mm.
During installation, it is essential to ensure that brake pads are centred and in full contact with the
brake disc (the midlines of the brake lever must point to the midpoint of the brake disc.).
Preparation for installation
Before mounting on the 12.5 mm thick brake disc, the brake must be released (opened). This is
possible:
•
with the aid of the electromagnet (1), provided that it is already connected to a power source
(see Section 8.3).
•
mechanically, by screwing on the "emergency release nut" (8), which you can find on the right
lever (see chapter 15). To do this, pull off the rubber cap (9) at the back of the electromagnet
and screw the "emergency release nut" onto the thread of the plunger.
Important!
Check whether the brake disc can rotate freely.
Important!
If the brake is released by screwing on the "Emergency release nut" (8), the
"Emergency release nut" must be removed after installation of the brake for a
functioning brake!
