Chapter 8: Operation
NOTE:If the sensor does not get triggered, the transporter‘s software will prevent it
from moving.
Cart Brakes
The two rear casters of the cart have brakes, which push a blunt pin against the caster rolling
surface to prevent a cart from rolling when it is parked on a floor that is not perfectly level.
Cart brakes are only intended to prevent rolling on a slightly unlevel floor. They will not imme-
diately stop a moving cart, or prevent a cart from rolling down a slope.
Although it is possible to push the cart with the brakes engaged, this is not recommended,
because it will accelerate wear of both the braking pins and the casters themselves. When a
cart needs to be moved, the Operator should always release the brakes with the brake release
handle.
In the unlikely event that the cart becomes unlatched from the LDî ±platform while in motion,
the brakes are designed to stop the cart within six feet.
Automatic Brake Release
When the cart transporter couples with the cart, it actuates a lever that releases the cart brakes,
so the cart can move freely with the transporter.
Manual Brake Release
When there is no cart transporter present, the cart brakes can be released manually. Each cart
comes with a release cable and lever, similar to a bicycle brake handle, that releases the cart
brakes when squeezed. Installation of this cable and lever is covered in Installing the Cart
Brake Release on page 55. As long as the brake release handle is squeezed, the brakes will be
released.
