Internal hexagon socket/
Slot (DYSS-2 only)
The screw in the internal hexagon socket of the shock absorber must not be
loosened.
NOTICE
Tensile forces on the piston rod can seriously damage the shock absorber.
4.2 Function
The hydraulic shock absorber has the following characteristics:
–position-controlled flow control function
–fixed stop on housing
Force applied to the piston rod causes the piston rod to move to the fixed stop.
The internal return spring moves the piston rod back to its initial position.

5Transport and storage
Store the product in a cool, dry environment protected from UV and corrosion.
Keep storage times short.

6.1 Mounting product
Mounting options:
–in through-hole
–in through thread
When mounting in hole
Lock nut mounting, at both ends
The lock nuts must not protrude beyond the threaded area.
Tab. 1: Mounting in hole
1. Insert product to the desired stop position.
2. Secure the product with lock nuts. Tighten the lock nuts with tightening
torque.
With mounting in thread
Lock nut mounting on one side
The lock nut must not protrude beyond the
threaded area.
The mounting surface must not protrude beyond
the thread area.
Tab. 2: Mounting in thread
1. Screw product in to the desired stop position.
Do not exceed the maximum torque when screwing or holding the internal
hexagon socket/slot.
2. Tighten the lock nut to the tightening torque.

6.2 Align product
–Observe the maximum deviation of the direction of force from the shock
absorber axis.
–The mass must meet the piston rod and the fixed stop over a wide area.

7 Commissioning
7.1 Executing test run
1. Start the test run at the drive with reduced speed.
2. If necessary, readjust the position of the shock absorber.
3. Gradually increase the speed of the drive in steps to the operating value. If
set correctly, the end position is reached without a hard stop.
With hard stop:
–If necessary, reduce impact speed.
–Check function and design of the shock absorber.
7.2 Notes on operation
Energy absorption
• Only use shock absorbers within the permissible range from 25% to 100% of
the maximum energy absorption è 11 Technical data.
Recommendation: use shock absorbers within the optimum range from
50% to 80% of the maximum energy absorption.
Area of energy absorp-
tion
Note
0 … 25% unfavourable; increased fluid leakage at the shock absorber pos-
sible
25 … 50% permissible
50 … 80% optimal
80 … 100% permissible
> 100% impermissible
Tab. 5: Energy absorption of the shock absorber
Cushioning effect
The viscosity of the hydraulic fluid declines over the operating life due to the
generated friction heat. This can reduce the cushioning effect.
8 Maintenance
Maintenance interval Maintenance work
Every 2 million load changes Check shock absorber:
–sealing, no fluid leakage
–fixed stop, no deformation
– Cushioning distance s è 11 Technical data
In case of leakage, hard stop or insufficient cushioning distance:
replace shock absorber.
Tab. 6: Maintenance schedule
9 Malfunctions
9.1 Fault clearance
Malfunction Possible cause Remedy
Leakage/fluid leakage The shock absorber is faulty. Replace the shock absorber.
Hard stop Fixed stop or shock absorber
overloaded.
Reduce impact speed or check
the design of the shock
absorber.
The shock absorber is faulty. Replace the shock absorber.
Tab. 7: Fault clearance
9.2 Repair
The shock absorber cannot be repaired.
The hydraulic fluid in the shock absorber cannot be topped up.
10 Dismantling and disposal
CAUTION
The product contains pressurised hydraulic fluid that can escape in an uncon-
trolled manner if the housing is damaged.
The hydraulic fluid can injure people's eyes and skin and damage the environ-
ment.
• Have the product disposed of by a qualified waste disposal company.
• Do not destroy the product in order to drain the hydraulic fluid.
