3.1.2 General description This is an incomplete machine The series of the CR 12 / CR 16 / CR 20 Rotary module is used for the linear, smooth movement of rigidly mounted loads under the ambient and Installation conditions defined, see Technical data.
The CR is designed exclusively for the rotational movement in any required position with a torque of 0.45 Nm for CR 12 and 1.25 Nm for CR 16 and 2.2 Nm for CR 20 which, when handled, do not react in a way which could endanger persons, objects or the environment.
Modifications on the module that are not described in these Montage Instructions or have not been approved in writing by Afag are not permitted. In case of improper changes or assembly, installation, operation, maintenance or repairs, Afag rejects all liability.

4.0.0 Maintenance instructions 4.1.0 Maintenance and servicing of the CR 12/16/20 Rotary module compact CAUTION The module may only be disassembled when the system is aerated and deactivated. If pneumatic connections are disconnected when they are under pressure, this may result in serious personal injury due to fast movements of moving parts.
Open guides and piston rods should be covered with a grease layer to avoid formation of rust. Recommendation: Clean and grease once a month! Afag standard: - Staburax NBU8EP (flat guides) - Blasolube 301 (piston rods) CR 12 - CR 16 - CR 20 - BA-vers.3.2 gb.21.07.14.docx...
