 Caution

 

This robot has a brake built into the motor to maintain the posture of the arm, so the arm will fall if the motor is removed. You must take safety measures such as hanging the arm using a crane or inserting fixing pins to fix the first and second arms to prevent the falling.

 

When required to contact the motor right after the robot stops, you should check its temperature. The weight of the motor is as follows. Be careful when transporting the motor.
