Operating The Manual/Automatic Switchover Unit; Filter With Filter Receptacle; Mounting The Air Filter - Samson 4708 Mounting And Operating Instructions

4.3.3 Operating the manual/
automatic switchover
unit
In normal operation, the manual/automatic
switchover runs in automatic mode, during
which the positioner supplies air to the pneu-
matic actuator.
Fig. 16: Cap and switchover pin
To switch to manual mode, twist off the plas-
tic cap. Turn the switchover pin counterclock-
wise and pull it (approx. 1 cm) out of the
bayonet lock.
The compressed air is then routed directly
from the supply pressure regulator or from
the air supply network to the pneumatic ac-
tuator.
To switch back to automatic mode, push in
the switchover pin again. To do this, insert
the lock pin completely into the bayonet and
lock it.
Replace plastic cap and tighten.
