1. Declaration of Incorporation The manufacturer or the person authorised are obliged to hand over the special documents for the partially completed machine to the national authorities on reasoned request. This transmission is carried out electronically. The commercial protective rights remain unaffected by this. Important note! The partially completed machine must not be put into operation, until, if required, it has been determined that the machine in which the partially completed machine is to be installed complies with the regulations of this guideline.
2. General notes 2.1 Notes on these assembly instructions These assembly instructions are documentation which is only valid for the electric cylinder described and are intended for the manufacturer of the end product into which this partly completed machinery is to be installed. We wish to explicitly point out that the manufacturer of the end product must produce operating instructions for the end user containing all the functions and hazard warnings of the end product.
Only original spare parts may be used when undertaking repair and maintenance. Phoenix Mecano Komponenten AG does not accept any liability for spare parts that have not been tested and approved for use by Phoenix Mecano Komponenten AG.
Moving persons with this electric cylinder, for example, is an example of improper use and is forbidden. In event of improper use, Phoenix Mecano Komponenten AG is no longer liable for this electric cylinder and its general operating licence will expire.
5. Safety 5.1 Safety instructions Phoenix Mecano Komponenten AG has built this electric cylinder according to the current state of the art and existing safety regulations. Nonetheless, this electric cylinder can pose risks to persons and property if it is used improperly or for a non-intended use or if the safety instructions are not observed.
• reasons. The performance specifications of these electric cylinder specified by • Phoenix Mecano Komponenten AG must not be exceeded. The type plate must remain legible. It must be possible to identify the ratings data effortlessly at • any time.

The stroke of the cylinder originally set is not changed when using the Bowden cable. The adjustment force required on the push rod after releasing using the Bowden cable is different depending on the configuration of the Lambda electric cylinder: Version 1: approx. 300 N Version 2: approx.
7. Life phases 7.5.3 Fitting and installation Never pretension the Bowden cable when it is in a free state otherwise there is a risk of releasing the push rod. Thereafter, the electric cylinder will not fulfil its function in operation. There is a risk of damage when applying a little force.
7. Life phases 7.6 Installation Check for any damage or missing components after receipt of the electric cylinder. The electric cylinder will be delivered read for operation without a controller. The fixing of the electric cylinder is carried out using the fork heads on the push rod and the gear housing.
7. Life phases 7.6.1 Installation procedure / installation sequence • Hang the rear suspension onto the "counter-piece". The counter-piece must not be able to be twisted. The electric cylinder must be able to be rotated in the direction of the arrow (see graphic). •...
7. Life phases • Connect to the respective controller. • Perform the test run / initial run without load and check the function of the system. 7.7 Maintenance The electric cylinder generally does not require servicing, but it is not exempt from wear and tear. You can recognise possible wear on faulty functions, increased play of the moving parts or unusual sounds that originate from the electric cylinder.
7. Life phases 7.8 Cleaning You can clean the hand switch and the outside surface of the electric cylinder's profile using a lint- free, clean cloth. Solvent-based cleaners will corrode the material and can damage it. 7.9 Disposal and return The electric cylinder must either be disposed of in accordance with the applicable regulations and guidelines, or returned to the manufacturer.
