WARNING
Depressurize the system!
– Switch off the compressed air supply before working on the circuit.
– Check the system with pressure gauges to make sure that the entire circuit is
fully depressurized.
– Please note that energy may be stored in reservoirs. Further information on
this issue is available in the datasheets and operating instructions included
with the components.
Risk of injury when switching on compressed air!
Cylinders may advance and retract automatically.
Risk of accident due to advancing cylinders!
– Always position pneumatic cylinders so that the piston rod’s working space is
unobstructed over the entire stroke range.
– Make sure that the piston rod cannot collide with any rigid components of the
setup.
Risk of accident due to tubing slipping off!
– Use shortest possible barbed tubing connectors.
– If tubing slips off,
switch off the compressed air supply immediately.
Do not exceed the maximum permissible pressure of 6 bar (600 kPa).
Do not switch on the compressed air until all the barbed tubing connectors have
been joined and secured.
Do not disconnect tubing while under pressure.
–
Do not attempt to connect tubing or plugs with your hands or fingers.
