INSTALLING A SIDE PLATE OR INDIRECT SENSOR
1. With the Side Plate at 45°, align pins of side plate with slots of frame. Slide pins into slot. When pins are fully
seated, rotate side plate and slide down onto frame.
2. If an
Indirect Sensor is to be installed, move brass bushing in sensor to align with drive pin in gripper. This must
be done to correctly install sensor. Align dowel pins with slots of frame. Once pins are fully into slots, rotate sensor
down onto frame. As rotation begins make sure bushing and drive pin are still aligned.
Note: Whenever any part of the gripper is replaced including pads the sensor will need to be recalibrated, see
"Calibrating In-Direct Sensor".
3. Clean and apply Loctite 262 or equivalent to M5 X 12mm SHCS for side plate or M5 X 30mm SHCS for sensor.
Insert through side plate/sensor and into frame. Tighten M5 SHCS to 72in-lb.
