- At least two latch locks must be used.

- Careful attention must be paid to the uniform setting of all the latch locks and to uniform drawing of the plate to be drawn, in order to avoid tilting the plate.

- Locking function: The securing bush locks the catches. This prevents the drawn mould plate (H1V) running back in an uncontrolled manner. The safety function is cancelled during the closing operation as soon as the latch bar has moved into the piston to such an extent that the catches can be guided back towards the inside onto the latch bar. If the round latch lock is fitted into the guide system, the plate (H1V) which is to be moved must be hardened. The bore diameter d2 is to be matched to the external diameter of the housing corresponding to a slide way with a tolerance from +0.03 mm to +0.04 mm.

- Securing the mould: The blocked mould plate (H1V), before being unlocked by the latch bar, must be secured against impermissibly high closing forces in the stroke (S2) by the mould securing means of the injection moulding machine. If there are mould slides with angle pins in the stroke region (S2), then the mould securing means must respond before the angle pins plunge into the mould slikes.
If the mould is to be completed with both mould halves separately, care should be taken that the drawn mould plate (H1V) is located in the limit position of the fully drawn stroke (S1), and the block is active, before closing movement of the injection mould.

- The latch locks are to be fitted symmetrically and parallel to the mould guide. Careful attention should be paid to setting all the latch locks uniformly in dimensions and to drawing the plate which is to be drawn uniformly, in order to prevent the plate from tilting.
- Latch bars can be shortened as required. Housing must not be altered.
- The zero points (positioning points) indicated in CAD files are used to coordinate the designs and dimensions during mould design.
- Following the installation of the round latch locks, check the stroke (opening travel S1) of the mould plate (H1V) moving away, and correct if necessary.
