Dangers may arise from the unit, if:
•the product is not installed or inserted properly,
•the system is not used for its intended purpose,
•the safety and installation notes are not observed.
CAUTION! Never operate the semi-cylindrical bolt when the load is suspended!

NOTICE!
The unit may only be operated if the machine in which the unit is installed complies with
the relevant provisions of the machinery directive 2006-42-EC.
NOTICE!
A semi-cylindrical bolt safety device must be used for dynamic applications.
Otherwise boundary conditions supplied by the customer, e.g. vibrations can lead to
automatic lock-out release.
Everyone who is responsible for assembly, commissioning and maintenance must read and
understand the complete operating instructions. Improper use, which affects the function und
operational safety of the SWS Connector, is prohibited.
In order to prevent damage to the connector as well as injuries to the operator, the
lower assembly or the tool must be secured by hand or other devices before opening
the change system. Otherwise there is a risk that irreparable damages to the tool or
injury to the operator are caused by the unit falling down.
This symbol indicates possible hazards to persons or the SWS
Connector.
The SWS Connector has been designed as an interface between special solutions and automation
(e.g. gripper). Furthermore, the SWS can also be used as an interface between handling device and
tool . In dynamic applications, it can only be used with the locking piston. The unit may only be used in
the context of its technical specifications. The system is intended for the installation in a machine. The
requirements of the applicable instructions must be considered and adhered to.
Use this unit only in dry and splash-proof environments at room temperature as well as within the
application parameters defined in the technical specifications. If this is not the case, warranty
cannot be accepted. Exceptions are units designed especially for the respective conditions.
To open the change system, insert the square socket key on the square of the semi-cylindrical bolt and turn
counter-clockwise (“to the left") by 180 ° to the stop. The upper and lower assembly can now be pulled apart.
When joining the parts, the hand lever must be set to open position. Now, upper and lower assembly can be
pushed into each other.
By turning the semi-cylindrical bolt clockwise (“to the right”) 180° up to the stop, the system is locked. Afterwards
the hand lever is folded and latched.

The semi-cylindrical bolt safety device (VS2) is available as an option for sizes SWS050,
SWS063, SWS080, SWS100 and SWS125. The sizes SWS160, SWS200 and SWS250 are
always equipped with a semi-cylindrical bolt safety device.
If the product is used as intended in 1-shift operation the warranty is valid for 24 months from the
ex-works delivery date under observance the mandatory maintenance and lubrication intervals and
the given operating conditions. Generally parts touching the work piece and wear parts are not
part of the warranty. Wear parts are listed in chapter 8.1. The unit is considered to be defective if
its basic function "Lock" is no longer functioning.

Depending on the size one (SWS050 to 080) or two (SWS100 to 250) fitting bores according to
ISO 9409 are available on the robots or grippers side.
CAUTION! Risk of pinching the fingers when closing the SWS
When assembling, the upper and lower assemblies do not have to be inserted
into each other as far as they will go. By turning the semi-cylindrical bolt, the
lower assembly is pulled around the locking stroke (see technical description
„VH“).
The upper assembly of the SWS Connector is mounted on the robot flange, the manipulator or
similar actuators. It can be centered with the help of a centering disc. The angular orientation is
determined by means of a fitting bore. The lower assembly is mounted on grippers, measuring
instruments or other tools. If the SWS Connector can not be installed directly, adapter flanges
must be used. Use screws according to DIN 912. For the sizes 50, 63 and 80, screws according to
DIN 7984 are to be used on the gripper side. The screw-in depth of the screws must be observed.
We recommend the use of a "medium-tight" screw lock.
Optionally, the SWS can be provided with a MEK Energy Coupling. To mount the MEK the "E"
option must be specified when ordering the SWS. The MEK is available in different versions. The
MEK enables the simultaneous coupling of electrical and pneumatic lines when opening or closing
the SWS. The MEK is mounted with two cylinder screws to the upper and lower assemblies. For
further installation instructions, please refer to the assembly and operating instructions of the MEK.
CAUTION!
Perform assembly work only when the power supply is switched off!

7.1 Disassembly of the SWS
(Behold Image 5)
1. Disassemble the SWS.
2. Loosen the Setscrew (Pos. 3).
3.
4. Clean all parts thoroughly. Inspect for wear and defects.
5. Lubricate all mating surfaces.
For assembly, reverse the order.

In order to archieve a precise fit, centering discs in every size are offered (as shown in image 3).
The use of a centering disc ensures that the upper assembly and/or lower assembly of the
Connector are properly centered. Installation on both the upper assembly and lower assembly is
possible (as shown in image 4).

The SWS is virtually maintenance-free. Check the semi-cylindrical bolt in regular intervals for
correct function. Keep the mating surface and the moving parts clean and lubricate them slightly.
Spare parts and component parts of the SWS can be found on our homepage:

To disassemble the semi-cylindrical bolt (Pos. 2) from the other component parts (Pos. 5,
6, 7 and 8), remove the cylinder bolt (Pos. 8).
