The emergency unlock may only be used in exceponal circumstances. The
unlocking tool included in the delivery is designed such as not to damage the
mechatronics inside of the Arm. Inappropriate handling may damage the Arm.
Therefore:
• Only use the unlocking tool provided for an emergency unlock. The
unlocking tool is to be inserted gently into the opening as not to
damage the mechatronics.
• The safety locking system should unlock upon slight moderate
pressure.
NOTICE
When unlocking the safety locking system, the dead weight of the Arm segment
below the lock will lead to movement (especially sinking and dropping of the
Arm). This movement may cause injuries by crushing or penetrang body parts.
Therefore:
• Arm segments below locks are to be supported manually before carrying
out the emergency unlock.
• Never carry out an emergency unlock when the Arm is switched on –
Panda must always be safely disconnected from the power supply before
an emergency unlock.
CAUTION
When the device is turned o, the Hand is not supplied with power either. A
jamming between the ngers of the Hand can be loosened by simply pulling the
ngers open.
Moving the ngers of the Hand
without a power supply
With manual opening of the gripper, grasped objects will fall out. These may
fall on your hands/ngers or feet and thus cause severe injuries.
Therefore:
• support the object in the gripper, before the gripper is opened manually
• wear personal protecve gear (safety footwear, etc.)
