Switching off the compressed air after the end of the loading process
produces a very high risk of injury due to the rail hook flying off the rail.
Similarly, during this operating step there is a risk of breakage of the rail
hook.
Operation
1. If rail type is not S-49: Install an auxiliary device consisting of a tube,
∅
63 mm
. Fig. 3
2. Push back the push rod and position the nose so that it is at right angles to
the longitudinal axis of the rail hook.
3. Via the compressed air hose , apply compressed air to the cylinder at a
pressure in the range 3 bar to 10 bar.
Insert the hook in the eye of the cable, and pull the rail hook towards yourself.
Before the rail hook is attached to the rail, the distance between the washer and
the tube should be approximately 40 to 50 mm.
4. If the distance is greater than 50 mm, the hook must be adjusted so that the
distance described is achieved.
5. To adjust the hook , undo the hexagon screws M 8 and either pull the hook
out or push it in.
6. Tighten the hexagon screws , and use the rail hook as described in 3.
7. After the end of the loading process, remove the rail hook from the rail by hand.
The bottom valves close at the same time.
