Introduction
1.1
About this documentation
Stromag GmbH strongly emphasises that the technical details such as dimensions, weights in kg, tolerances,
tightening torques and units required for assembly, such as securing means and lubricants, must be obtained
from the dimensional drawing.
Should this information be necessary during assembly, a corresponding point in these mounting/operating
instructions will be referenced on the dimensional drawing.
A dimensional drawing is supplied as a separate document and can be requested additionally from our aftersales
services, see section 11.2. For this, the information on ordering spare parts is required, see section 11.1.
For the purpose of simplification, the following designations are used in the mounting/operating instructions.
•
Mounting/operating instructions will be referred to as
Documentation
in the following.
•
The gear limit switch, type series 51, will be referred to as
GCLS
in the following.
This documentation makes it easier for the operator to familiarise himself with the GCLS and to use it for its
intended application.
This documentation covers various GCLS designs. The figures used are partly by way of example only. The
specific design of the supplied GCLS is shown in the dimensional drawing, see section 4.2.
The documentation contains important instructions on how to operate the GCLS safely, properly and
economically. Observing the documentation helps to avoid dangers, to reduce repair costs and down times and to
increase the reliability as well as the operating life of the GCLS. Read the documentation carefully and thoroughly.
1.1.1
Target group
The documentation is limited to use by qualified as well as trained personnel.

1.1.2
Use/storage
This documentation must always be kept to hand at the operation location of the GCLS. The documentation must
then be integrated into the overall documentation of the machine and into the safety concept. When selling the
GCLS, the documentation must also be passed on.
