- Remove the hexagon screws M8x20 that attach the Vacuum manifold to the suction
frame.
- Carefully pull the Vacuum manifold off the axle.
⇒
Remove the 12 hexagon screws M8x30 that secure the suction frame to the ring gear.
⇒
Carefully lift the OKTOPUS
®
, move it towards the suction frame for curved glass sitting
on two additional support trestles and put it down there. Make sure that the axle with
the O-rings does not strike against anything.
⇒
Assemble the Vacuum manifold as follows:
- Push the Vacuum manifold on to the axle with the O-rings.
- Align the quick couplings of the Vacuum manifold so that the vacuum hoses of the
suction frame can be connected to the same colors.
- Secure the Vacuum manifold using the two previously removed hexagon screws
M8x20, washers and spring washers. Initially tighten the hexagon screws only a few
thread turns into the suction frame.
⇒
Secure the suction frame to the ring gear. Therefore mount 12 hexagon screws (8 pcs.
M8x30 and 4 pcs. M8x110), washer and spring washers. Use 4 hexagon crews
M8x110 where the screws M8x30 are too short due to the rectangular profile of the
suction frame. Firmly tighten the screws.
⇒
Firmly tighten the hexagon screws M8x20 of the Vacuum manifold and couple the just
mounted suction frame to the vacuum system of OKTOPUS
®
by plugging in all four
quick couplings (Make sure they are of the same color!).
The above mentioned steps shall be carried out by at least two persons.
One person assembles, the other one guides and secures the OKTOPUS
®
!
Leave the crane rigged during the entire dis-/assembly time. Make sure that
the crane ropes are always stretched!
