The gripper is state-of-the-art. It is fitted to industrial machines and is used to hold workpieces. The following
are examples of situations in which the gripper may pose a hazard:
• The gripper is not properly installed, used or maintained
• The gripper is not used for its intended purpose
• Local regulations (legislation, ordinances, guidelines), such as the EC Machinery Directive, accident pre-
vention regulations and the installation and operating instructions, are not observed.
3. The gripper may be used only in accordance with its proper use and technical data. Zimmer GmbH shall
accept no liability for any damage caused by improper use.
4. Any use other than the intended use requires written approval from Zimmer GmbH.
5. Make sure that the power cables are disconnected before you install, modify, maintain or repair the gripper.
6.
In case of maintenance, modification or attachment work, remove the gripper from the machine and perform
the work outside the danger zone.
7. When commissioning or testing, make sure that the gripper cannot be activated by mistake.
8.
Modifications to the gripper, such as adding drilled holes or threads, may be made only with prior approval
from Zimmer GmbH.

The specified maintenance intervals are to be observed; also refer to the "Maintenance" section. When the
gripper is used under extreme conditions, the maintenance interval must be adapted depending on the
