To open the change system, pull the locking pin on the hand lever. After that the hand lever is to be opened
by approximately 90°. With the help of the hand lever the semi-cylindrical bolt can be turned counter
clockwise (“to the left”) by 180° up to the stop. The upper and lower assembly can now be pulled apart.
When joining the parts, the hand lever must be set to open position. It cannot lock in this position.
Now, upper and lower assembly can be pushed into each other.
By turning the semi-cylindrical bolt clockwise (“to the right”) 180° up to the stop, the system is locked.
Afterwards the hand lever is folded and latched.
The MGW Connector has been designed as an interface between handling device and tool (e.g.
gripper). Furthermore, the MGW can also be used in special solutions, automation and also as a
general mechanical standard interface. The unit may only be used in the context of its technical
specifications. The system is intended for the installation in a machine. The requirements of the
applicable instructions must be considered and adhered to.
NOTICE!
The unit may only be operated if the machine in which the unit is installed complies with
the relevant provisions of the machinery directive 2006/42/EC.
This symbol indicates possible hazards to persons or the MGW
Connector.
Use this unit only in dry and splash-proof environments at room temperature as well as within the
application parameters defined in the technical specifications. If this is not the case, warranty
cannot be accepted. Exceptions are units designed especially for the respective conditions.
Everyone who is responsible for assembly, commissioning and maintenance must read and
understand the complete operating instructions. Improper use, which affects the function und
operational safety of the MGW Connector, is prohibited.
In order to prevent damage to the connector as well as injuries to the operator, the
lower assembly or the tool must be secured by hand or other devices before opening
the exchange system. Otherwise there is a risk that irreparable damages to the tool or
injury to the operator are caused by the unit falling down.
