CAUTION


  • The cables may deform during storage. Caution is required this regard. The cable's bend radius is at least five times larger than the cable diameter (R=30 mm or larger).
  • The cable may rub against the Manipulator or get under tension as shown in the photo below depending on the Manipulator motion. When routing the cable, be careful in this regard and check if it touches and rubs against the Manipulator or is under tension.
