WARNING
Risk of injury due to falling device, pallet or workpiece if the
clamping pin is loosened inadvertently or as a result of
negligence.
•
During operation, incorrect or negligent loosening of the
clamping pin must be prevented using suitable
countermeasures (disconnecting the power supply after
locking, use of check valves or safety switches).
•
The machines and equipment must fulfill the minimum
requirements of the EC Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC;
specifically, they must have effective technical measures to
protect against potential mechanical hazards.
•
Wear personal protective equipment.
WARNING
Risk of injury during commissioning caused by falling of an
unlocked device, pallet or workpiece.
•
During loading, check that the coupling elements are
positioned so they are aligned to each other.
•
For modules with media transfer units, ensure the loading
weight on the changeover interface is sufficient to ensure the
surface of the interface is level with the module.
WARNING
Risk of injury when the clamping pin axis is being used in a
horizontal position or during overhead applications due to the
device or pallet falling down.
•
Use a crane or a transport truck when transporting
workpieces or clamping pallets.
•
During horizontal or overhead applications, the device or
clamping pallet must be secured before loosening to prevent
it from falling.
WARNING
The quick-change pallet system clamps using spring force. Risk
of injury due to parts automatically moving to their end
positions following actuation of an "emergency stop" or after
switching off the power supply.
•
Wait for the system to shut down completely.
•
Do not reach into the clamping modules.
•
Use pressure maintenance valves.
