    TECDOS TM Operating Instructions The TECDOS TM turn-over frame must be set to its middle position (position in which the machine is supplied) for commissioning. Set the toggle switch to its end position. Use both hands to operate the push-buttons. The turn-over frame moves to one of the two vertical positions shown in Figure 5.
  • Page 14: Loading The Tecdos Tm

    Loading the TECDOS TM The TECDOS TM is usually loaded by crane. The crane must be capable of lifting at least the TECDOS TM's operating load (compare the crane manufacturer's data plate with the TECDOS TM data plate). Only authorised and designated lifting gear are to be used.
  • Page 15 TECDOS TM Operating Instructions Do not use TECDOS TM machines to handle or move prototype tools that exceed the limits specified in Table 2. In case of doubt, contact RUD Ketten. It may be possible to define special regulations for particular types of use and enable the machines to be used in specific, pre-agreed conditions.
