Table 4: Maintenance work 

 

4.3 Further maintenance 

Under  the  ambient  conditions  mentioned  below  the  EU-20  electric  gripper  does  not 
require any further maintenance: 

-

  clean workshop atmosphere 

-

  no splash water 

-

  no friction dust or dust from processing 

-

  climate and temperature according to the technical data. 

 

4.4  Troubleshooting 

 

WARNING

 

 

The  gripper  fingers  are  moved  by  the  electric  control.  If  the 
gripper  fingers  cannot  move  freely  there  is  danger  of  injuries 
and bruises near the add-ons. 

Observe the Montage Instructions of the system into which the 
EU-20 electric gripper was incorporated.

 

 

 

WARNING

 

 

Due to the decentral controller the operator of the EU-20 electric 
gripper needs  not to be  near the product so that third  persons 
might be endangered by the gripper operation. 

Always switch off the control and protect it from being switched 
on  again  unintentionally  when  you  work  on  the  EU-20  electric 
gripper.  The  signals  of  the  control  system  may  cause  uninten-
tional  movements  of  the  module  which  may  lead  to  personal 
injuries.
