Remove the cable plug after the connector is aligned.
Mount the Electric Cylinder
Use stainless steel fasteners to mount your electric cylinder to your application.
Attach Single Motor Cable
Follow these steps to attach the single motor cable after the electric-cylinder is mounted.
1.
Carefully align the cable connector with motor connector.
ATTENTION:
Apply force only to the connectors; do not apply force to the cable. Do not
use tools, for example, pliers and vise-grips, to assist with the rotation of the connector.
Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in personal injury or damage to
equipment.
BURN HAZARD:
Outer surfaces of the motor can reach high temperatures, 65 °C (149 °F), during
electric cylinder operation. To help prevent accidental contact with hot surfaces, take precautions.
Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in personal injury.
ATTENTION:
Consider electric-cylinder surface temperature when making the motor-mating
connection.
Failure to observe these safety precautions can result in personal injury or damage to equipment.
ATTENTION:
The keyed connector must be properly aligned and hand-tightened.
Do not use tools, or apply excessive force, when mating the cable to the motor connector.
If the connectors do not go together with light hand force, realign and try again.
