General
NOT ALLOWED ACTIVITIES:
Unauthorized alterations of the device and the use of any self-made additional equipment could cause
danger and are therefore forbidden!
Carrying capacities (WLL) of the device must not be exceeded and nominal widths/gripping

All unauthorized transports with the device are strictly prohibited:

Gripping of gripping goods with surfaces that reduce the coefficient of friction (e.g., abrasive,
treated, dirty, frozen, coated, painted surfaces), as this causes a reduction in the coefficient of
friction between the grippers and the gripping goods → Danger of slipping!
Remedy: In case of dirt of any kind, it is absolutely necessary to clean the grippers and the surface
of the products in the area of the grippers before each gripping process!
•
Gripping of gripped goods, which can deform or break due to the clamping force of the gripping
device!
