Using the attached screws (M4 self-tapping screw × 2), secure •
the HE9Z-GP15 to the grip style enabling switch.
Recommended tightening torque: 1.0 ±0.1 N·m
Do not use excessive force to tighten the HE9Z-GP15 onto the
switch, otherwise the mounting holes will become deformed and
the HE9Z-GP15 cannot be secured. Prevent the screws from
loosening by applying epoxy. (Recommended: LOCTITE 425,
ThreeBond 1401)
Precautions for Installation
When using the HE9Z-GP15 for safety-related equipment in a •
con trol system, refer to safety standards and regulations in each
coun try and region to make sure of correct operation. Also, per-
form a risk assessment to ensure safety before starting operation
of the machine.
Read the instruction sheets for both the grip style enabling switch •
and interlock switch to be used.
Insert the HE9Z-GP15 in the direction shown in the following •
fi gure only. Do not insert from any other direction. Also, do not

See below for vertical installation. Do not install in any other di- •
rection. Also, make sure that the mounting surface is provided for
the entire area of the grip style enabling switch, so that the switch
does not tilt as shown below. Otherwise the HE9Z-GP15 actua tor
will be deformed.

Correct Incorrect
Do not install the grip style enabling switch and the interlock •
switch in an area subjected to vibration. Excessive vibration may
cause malfunction of the switch contacts of the grip style enabling
switch. Also, exposure to vibration for a long period of time can
cause scratching and deformation of plastic parts.
When installing or removing the grip style enabling switch, do •
not use excessive force in any direction other than shown in the
fol lowing fi gure. Otherwise the HE9Z-GP15 actuator can become
deformed or damaged.

Make sure that the HE9Z-GP15 actuator is inserted completely •
into the interlock switch. Avoid any foreign objects between the
actuator and interlock switch as they may interfere with the plastic
spring, resulting in possible damage to the actuator.

Do not apply excessive shocks to the HE9Z-GP15 when attached •
to the interlock switch, otherwise the actuator may be removed
from the interlock switch. Also excessive shocks may result in
damage or failure of the interlock switch.
When the plastic part of the HE9Z-GP15 or the actuator is dam- •
aged or deformed, stop using immediately.
The HE9Z-GP15 is used for HE1G/HE1G-L/HE2G grip style •
enabling switch and HS5D/HS5B/HS5E/HS5E-K interlock
switches only. Do not use the HE9Z-GP15 for other prod ucts.
Do not modify or disassemble the HE9Z-GP15. •
