The manual chuck can be operated in two different modes:

8.1 Handling and jaw change
See also the ROTA-S plus or ROTA-S plus 2.0 Assembly and
Operating Manual.
When fitting the cover (item 4) to close the bore, ensure that the
base jaws are mounted first. Then screw the cover (item 4) with
the O-ring (item 18) onto the chuck face using the screws (item
11).
The base jaws must always move under the cover so as to keep the
toolholder through bore sealed. However, the base jaws must only
be moved inwards to the extent that the first tongue and groove
of the base jaws does not move onto the cover (item 4) in the
course of clamping.
If standard jaws are used on the toolholder, the cover (item 4)
cannot be mounted.
With the ROTA-S flex 1000 size, ensure that the indicator pin is not
covered by the cover when screwing on the cover (item 4) -
observe recess in cover!
Fitting the guideway extensions
The guideway extensions are aligned with the baseplate using the
feather keys (item 19) and screwed to the baseplate using the
screws (item 12).
WARNING
Risk of injury (danger to life and limb) for the operating
personnel and risk of considerable material damage if the
guideway extensions (item 3) are not mounted correctly.
The guideway extensions (item 3) must be screwed to the
bracket (item 2) using the feather keys (item 19) and
all the
mounting screws (item 12).
To protect the counterbore holes against contamination, fit the
caps (item 10). Then push in the base jaws (item 6, 7).
