1.5.2 Release the Brake by the Software
CAUTION
■
Normally, release the brake of joints one by one. Take extra care if you need to
release the brakes of two or more
joints simultaneously. Releasing the brakes
of two or more joints simultaneously may cause hands and fingers to be caught
and/or equipment damage or malfunction of the Manipulator as the arms of the
Manipulator may move in unexpected directions.
■
Be
careful of the arm falling when releasing the brake.
While the brake is being released, the Manipulator’s arm falls by its own weight.
The arm falling may cause hands and fingers to be caught and/or may cause
equipment damage or malfunction of the Manipulator.
■
Before releasing the brake, be sure to keep the Emergency Stop switch handy so
that you can immediately press the Emergency Stop switch. Otherwise, you
cannot immediately stop the arm falling due to an erroneous operation. The arm
falling may
cause equipment damage and/or malfunction of the Manipulator.

1.6 Precaution for Operation in Low Power Status
In the low power status, the Manipulator operates at low speed and low torque.
If in close proximity to the Manipulator, operate the Manipulator carefully. Otherwise,
your hands or fingers may get caught during operation. The Manipulator may also
collide with peripheral equipment and cause equipment damage or malfunction of the
Manipulator.
CAUTION
■
Carefully operate the Manipulator in the low power status. A comparatively high
joint torque may be generated. It may cause your hands and fingers caught
and/or cause equipment damage or malfunction of the Manipulator as it may
collide with peripheral equipment.
