Cutting out the clamping shape
In order to cut out the required contour from the aluminium jaws they have to be clamped in
the KSO.

Tighten the spindle with the specified torque
Cut out the required clamping contour.
In view of the fact that clamping may be carried out in different ways, the setting up
