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:
(Figure: LS8-C602S)
| Symbol | Description |
|---|---|
| a | Joint #3 #4 Brake release switch |
| b | Arm #2 |
| c | Joint #3 (up and down) |
| d | Joint #4 (rotating) |
| e | Shaft |
| f | Arm #1 |
| g | Joint #1 (rotating) |
| h | Joint #2 (rotating) |
- Arm #1: Push the arm by hand.
- Arm #2: Push the arm by hand.
- Joint #3: The joint cannot be moved up/down manually because the electromagnetic brake applied to the joint is operating. Move the joint up/down while pressing the brake release switch.
- Joint #4: The shaft cannot be rotated manually because the electromagnetic brake applied to the shaft is operating. Move the joint up/down while pressing the brake release switch.
KEY POINTS
The brake release switch affects both Joints #3 and #4. When the brake release switch is pressed in emergency mode, the brake for both Joints #3 and #4 are released simultaneously. Be careful of the shaft falling and rotating due to hand weight while the brake release switch is being pressed.
