Picture of the automatic release

The device is equipped with an automatic release, that means the OPENING and CLOSING of the gripping arms results
through the set down and lifting of the device.
Pictures of the positions of the automatic release:
•Device is lifted through the lifting
equipment/carrier
•Gripping arms are opened
•With faulty switching, the
change-over switch must be
pushed back manually (e.g. with a
1)
screwdriver)
1)
Otherwise there may be faulty switching and when setting down the load this can cause deformation or
damage of the automatic release!
The jerky lifting and lowering of the device with and without load. e.g. caused through driving fast with the
lifting equipment/carrier over uneven grounds is forbidden
When replacing a defective automatic release, it is
essential to ensure that the slots of the two clamping
pins always point downwards.
The position of the slots must not be above or center,
otherwise there is a risk that the automatic release may
jam when switching!
