In all cases where we act as provider or supplier, our offers, orders placed with us, and agreements concluded with us are subject to the conditions and requirements laid down by the Netherlands Metal Association (the ‘Metaalunievoorwaarden’).
These conditions and requirements are filed with the registrar of the District Court of Rotterdam.
Swing arm
o The swing arm on / off switch (3) controls the movement of the swing arm.
o The swing arm speed can be adjusted with the swing arm speed control (2).
o By pressing the swing arm overrule button (13) on the left side, the swing arm direction is temporarily
changed, and robot forward movement is stopped. This function is used when a single pass of the
application is not sufficient to achieve the desired result and an additional pass of the application
nozzle(s) over the same spot is needed.
o The range of the swing arm sweep is determined by the position of the two limit switches. To change,
loosen the limit switch screws half a turn and move the switch to the required position, retighten
screws (hand tighten only).
o To change the application distance to the surface, use the swing arm up / down toggle switch (4)
to move the swing arm towards or away from the surface. Note that the application pressure supply
must be turned off (pump switch (10) “off”) for this function to work.
Winch
o Use and operation of the winch system is explained in the manual of the transport frame with winch
system.
Light

off by pressing the light control button (14).
Pump
o The pump switch (10) is used to activate the application pressure supply of connected application
equipment.
Estop
o Press the button (6) in case of emergency to immediately stop all robot movement as well as the
winch system (if used) and stop the application pressure supply (if the pump / valve control is
connected, see section 7.2). To resume working, pull out the emergency button while turning
clockwise. Press the activate button (15) on the right side to reactivate the system.

3. Adjust the application distance to the surface by moving the swing arm up or down as described in the
previous section.
4. Set the swing arm speed control to approximately 50%.
5. Turn on the swing arm movement to test its operation. Keep your hand on the emergency button and push
in case of collision or unexpected behavior.
6. Check the swing arm range and adjust if needed by adjusting the position of one or both limit switches as
described in the previous section.
7. Set the drive’s speed control to approximately 50%.
