1.5 Emergency Movement Without Drive Power
When the system is placed in emergency mode, push the arm or joint of the Manipulator
by hand as shown below:
Arm #1 Push the arm by hand.
Arm #2 Push the arm by hand.
Joint #3 The joint cannot be moved up/down by hand until the
electromagnetic brake applied to the joint has been released.
Move the joint up/down while pressing the brake release switch.
Joint #4 For G6-**1**,
Rotate the shaft by hand.
For G6-**3**,
The shaft cannot be rotated by hand until the electromagnetic
brake applied to the shaft has been released.
Move the shaft while pressing the brake release switch.
The brake release switch affects both Joints #3 and #4. When the brake release switch is
pressed in emergency mode, the brakes for both Joints #3 and #4 are released
simultaneously. (For G6-**1**, Joint #4 has no brake on it.)
Be careful of the shaft falling and rotating while the brake release switch is pressed
because the shaft may be lowered by the weight of an end effector.
