Notes on particular risks
• Perform maintenance work, modifications, and attachments
outside the danger zone.
• For all work, secure the system against accidental operation.
• Do not reach into the open mechanism of the clamping pin
holder.
• Only specialist personnel may perform assembly, modification
and disassembly work.
WARNING
Risk of injury to persons during transport and in case of
horizontally placed clamping pin axis due to falling down of the
fixture or pallet, or not allowed overhead application.
Overhead application is not allowed since the clamping area is
not secured by a spring.
Use a crane or a transport trolley during transport.
In case of horizontal application, secure the fixture or pallet
against falling down during loosening the clamping modules.
WARNING
Risk of injury to persons due to falling down of the fixture, pallet
or workpiece by erroneous or negligent loosening of the
clamping pins.
Erroneous or careless loosing of the clamping pin during
operation must be ruled out by removing the spanner wrench.
The danger zone must be surrounded by a protective enclosure
during operation.

WARNING
Risk of injury due to falling down of the fixture, pallet or
workpiece due to a insecure force connection at the clamping
area.
It is absolutely necessary to lock the clamping system with the
recommended torque to establish the force connection in the
clamping area.
The spanner wrench grip must not be extended in order to
actuate the drive.
CAUTION
During manual loading and unloading, risk of crushing of limbs
due to too large gaps between moving parts and during the
chucking operation.
Do not touch in the mounting area of the clamping pin.
Work with the smallest possible clamping and opening strokes.
Use loading aids.
Wear protective gloves.
Instructions for safe operation
The product may pose a danger to persons (risk of injury) and
property if, for example:
• it is used other than as intended;
• it is not installed or maintained properly;
• the safety and installation instructions, the safety and accident
prevention regulations valid at the usage site or the EC
Machinery Directive are not observed.
Maintenance instructions
The maintenance and servicing intervals must always be complied
with. The intervals indicated refer to a standard working
environment. Operating the gripper in an environment in which it
is subjected to abrasive dusts or corrosive and/or aggressive
vapours and/or liquids requires the prior consent of SCHUNK.
Safety during assembly and maintenance
During assembly, connection, setting, commissioning and testing,
it is important to eliminate the possibility of the fitter or any other
persons accidentally activating the system.
Refrain from all work that could threaten safety.
2.4

Basic safety notes
8 02|NSE-M plus 138 |en
Holding force and screw strength
The holding force of the System is essentially limited by the
strength of the screwed connections with which the clamping pin
is connected to the pallet or device. On this basis fastening
screws of the property class 12.9 are to be used only.
Only original SCHUNK Clamping-Pins are to be used.
When the clamping pin is used in the customer’s own assembly
device, the customer is to provide for a sufficiently dimensioned
tap and satisfactory strength of the fastening material.
Constructional changes, attachments, or modifications
Additional threads, bore holes or attachments which are not
supplied as accessories by SCHUNK may affect safety. They may
only be applied after obtaining the prior consent of SCHUNK.
Personnel qualification
The Quick Change Pallet System must only be installed, removed,
started up, operated and serviced by qualified specialist personnel
with the relevant safety training.
All persons charged with operating, maintaining and servicing this
Quick Change Pallet System must have access to the operating
manual, especially the chapter "Basic safety notes". We
recommend that the operator creates in-house safety operating
instructions.
Trainees may work on machines and technical equipment in which
a Quick Change Pallet System is installed provided that they are
supervised at all times by qualified specialist personnel.
