deactivated by installing the locking ring. The locking ring is included in the delivery
package.
For assembly, the serial number of the upper part and lower part must be
identical.

lower part from the top by slightly
squeezing the clamps on the lower part.
2. Insert the lower part into the upper part
until it audibly engages.
3. Keep the ejector pressed. The ejector rod
protrudes from the upper part.
4. Fit the ejector sleeve onto the ejector
rod. If correctly fitted, it will engage
slightly.
Remove the locking ring to reactivate the spring-loading action.
