Using Eyebolt
Check that the eyebolts are securely fastened before carrying the Manipulator.
After transporting the Manipulator, remove the eyebolts and keep them for future use.
The eyebolts (accessory, 2 pcs) and wire must be strong enough to withstand the weight
(See the figures below).
If you use the eyebolts to lift up the Manipulator, make sure to put hands on it to keep the
balance. The Manipulator may fall if the balance is lost and this is extremely hazardous.
To prevent damage on the covers and arms, it is recommended to protect the contacting parts
of the wire and arm with a cloth. Be very careful not to damage the covers since they are
made of plastic.

Manipulator.
