5-2. Installation
Warning
1. Keep the manual in a safe place for future reference. The product should be mounted and
operated only after thoroughly reading the operation manual and understanding its contents.
2. Ensure sufficient space for maintenance activities.
When installing the products, allow access for maintenance and inspection.
3. Observe the tightening torque for screws.
Tighten the screws to the recommended torque for mounting the product.
4. Do not place a magnetic object near the product.
The auto switch is a magnetic sensing type product. If a magnetic object is placed close to it, the product
could operate suddenly, which could pose a hazard to humans or damage the machinery and equipment.
When the magnet grippers are used in parallel, keep the specified cap between them to avoid malfunction.
5. Do not perform additional machining to the product.
Additional machining to the product can result in insufficient strength and cause damage to the product.
This can lead to possible human injury or damage to the surrounding equipment.
6. Do not enlarge the fixed orifice by modifying the pipe connectors.
If the fixed orifice is enlarged, the speed of switching between holding and releasing increases which
results in higher impact forces. This may lead to damage to the product, which can lead to human injury
and damage to other equipment and machinery.
7. When the magnet moves toward the magnetic attraction surface, holding force is generated on
the attraction surface, Make sure that holding force is not generated when working around the
magnet gripper so that your fingers do not get caught in the magnet gripper.
Caution
1. Do not scratch or dent the magnet gripper by dropping or bumping it when mounting.
Even a slight deformation can cause malfunction.
2. Be careful with the magnetic attraction of parts of objects around the magnet gripper when
mounting the magnet gripper while it is in its holding position (the piston is on the attraction side).
They may cause injury.
3. When mounting the product, tighten it with screws of appropriate length at an appropriate
torque.
Tightening with a torque greater than the specified torque can cause malfunction, while insufficient
tightening can cause slippage and dropping.
4. Do not apply impact load to the center of the magnetic attraction surface.
Otherwise, it may result in a breakage or malfunction.
