1. Be certain to connect the rod end to the
load with the lock released.
• If this is performed with the lock
engaged, a load that exceeds the
allowable rotational force or holding force
would be applied to the piston rod, which
could damage the locking mechanism.
The fine lock and Series CL1 with ø40 to
ø100 cylinders have a built-in manual
unlocking mechanism. Therefore, they
can be maintained in the unlocked state
without supplying air. For Series CL1 with
ø125 to ø160 cylinders, simply connect
piping to the lock-up port, and supply air
pressure of 0.2 MPa or more to
disengage the lock in order to attach a
load.
1. Do not apply offset loads on the piston rod.
• Pay particular attention to aligning the
center of gravity of the load with the axial
center of the cylinder. If there is a large
amount of deviation, the piston rod could
become unevenly worn or damaged due
to the inertial moment that is created
when the piston rod is stopped by the
lock.
Note) Can be used if all of the generated
moment is absorbed by an effective
guide.

1. Place it in the locked position. (Excluding
the series CL1 ø125 to ø160.)
• The locks are manually disengaged at the
time the cylinders are shipped from the
factory. Therefore, make sure to change
them to the locked state before using the
cylinders. For procedures to effect the
change, refer to page 599 for the fine lock
series. Be aware that the lock will not
operate properly if the change is not
performed correctly.
• Adjust the cylinder's air balance. In the
state in which a load is attached to the
cylinder, disengage the lock and adjust
the air pressure at the rod side and the
head side of the cylinder to obtain a load
balance. By maintaining a proper air
balance, the piston rod can be prevented
from lurching when the lock is
disengaged.
2. Adjust the mounting position of detections
such as those of the auto switches. To
effect an intermediate stop, adjust the
mounting position of the auto switch
detection by taking the amount of overrun
into consideration in relation to the desired
stopping position.
