Always use caution and common sense when handling motion control
equipment. Even the smallest ClearPath motor is powerful enough to
seriously damage fingers, turn a tie into a noose, or tear out a patch of hair
and/or scalp in just a few milliseconds (by comparison, it takes between
100 and 400 milliseconds to blink). We’re not trying to scare you (...OK
maybe a little) but we do want all ClearPath users to stay safe and fully
intact. These devices are very powerful and can be extremely
dangerous if used carelessly. Please read and understand all safety
warnings in the ClearPath User Manual before operating a ClearPath
motor.

Unloaded means with nothing attached to the motor shaft. ClearPath comes factory
preconfigured for unloaded operation. ClearPath must be tuned whenever it is
connected to a new type of mechanical system.
