2. Remove the protective cap from the motor.
3. Push the release device onto the corresponding motor and move the axis
in the desired direction.
The directions are indicated with arrows on the motors. It is necessary to
overcome the resistance of the mechanical motor brake and any other
loads acting on the axis.
Procedure Moving the manipulator with the brake release device:
1. Switch off the robot controller and secure it (e.g. with a padlock) to prevent
unauthorized persons from switching it on again.
2. Connect the brake release device to the base frame of the robot:
Unplug connector X30 from interface A1. Plug connector X20 of the brake
release device into interface A1.
3. Select the brakes to be released (main axes, wrist axes) via the selection
switch on the brake release device.
4. Press the button on the hand-held device.
The brakes of the main axes or wrist axes are released and the robot can
be moved manually.
5.4.5 Labeling on the industrial robot
All plates, labels, symbols and marks constitute safety-relevant parts of the in-
dustrial robot. They must not be modified or removed.
Labeling on the industrial robot consists of:

Identification plates

Warning labels

Safety symbols

Designation labels


Moving an axis with the release device can damage the
motor brake. This can result in personal injury and mate-
rial damage. After using the release device, the motor must be exchanged.
If a robot axis has been moved by the release device, all
robot axes must be remastered. Serious infuries or dam-
age to property may otherwise result.
Use of the brake release device may result in unexpect-
ed robot motions, especially sagging of the axes. During
use of the brake release device, attention must be paid to motion of this kind
in order to be able to prevent physical injuries or damage to property. Stand-
ing under moving axes is not permitted.
The following procedure must be followed exactly!
Further information about the brake release device can be found in
the documentation for the brake release device.
Further information is contained in the technical data of the operating
instructions or assembly instructions of the components of the indus-
trial robot.
