  • Page 5: Tightening Torques

    Tightening Torques Plastoform screws are used in polymer components. These screws form a permanent thread when they are installed for the first time. They can be removed and installed as often as necessary without detrimentally affecting the strength of the screwed assembly, providing the specified tightening torque is observed.
  • Page 6: Wiring Diagram/Description

    WIRING DIAGRAM/DESCRIPTION Chain brake The brake lever is unlatched when the "Quickstop" chain brake is activated, either manually or by inertia. The power supply is inter- rupted immediately by the chain brake switch (4) and the spring-loa- ded brake band is clamped around the brake drum at the same in- stant.

    Trigger Switch Capacitor Overload Circuit Breaker (230 V only) (E 160, E 180 C) The overload circuit breaker interrupts the power supply to protect the motor in the event of mechanical overload (e.g. cutting for extended period with excessive feed force, suddenly stopping the chain by pinching it in the cut).
