Mechanical installation

• Avoid the sealing band being pressed and/or sucked in.
Damage to the sealing band reduces its reliability in operation. Jerky movement of the unpressur-
ised slide can cause a partial vacuum that sucks the sealing band into the piston chamber.
• Leave all screws and threaded bolts in their original states, unless you are requested to modify
them in these instructions.
• Prevent the band system from becoming damaged or excessively dirty.
Damage to the DGC-HD will reduce its reliability and service life.
