The speeds at which the work clamps are raised and lowered can be adjusted by loosening or tightening the
valve control knobs. The speeds should be adjusted to speeds which are suitable for the intended application.
If the upper control knob is tightened, the raising speed becomes slower; if it is loosened, the raising speed
becomes faster.
If the lower control knob is tightened, the lowering speed becomes slower; if it is loosened, the lowering
speed becomes faster.
When the power is turned off, the work clamps can be operated by pressing the switch.
NOTE:
Pneumatic specifications
Adjust the control knobs so that the left and right work clamps both operate at the same speed.
Specifications with inner clamping device
First, adjust the speed for the reverse work clamp. (Valve 1)
