The lift arm should only be installed by a trained and certified Kinova-approved professional.
No parts should be repaired or replaced by the end user. If any problem with the device occurs,
repairs are to be made only by a Kinova-certified technician.
Do not open the internal mechanisms of the lift arm or lift arm controller. This should only be
performed by the manufacturer. Opening the lift mechanism will void the warranty and could result
in improper functioning of the device that endangers the user.
If the device is not responding properly to controls, do not use the device until it has been
verified by a trained and certified technician. Contact Kinova support for more details.
After using the lift arm, you need to allow time for the electromechanical actuator inside the
unit to cool down properly before using the lift arm again. Allow 10 minutes of rest after each
minute of use. The maximum period of continuous use should not exceed 2 minutes. Failure to
follow these limits may result in damage to the lift arm mechanism.
The software in the Kinova arm that governs the protection zones around the user and the
defined trajectories of the arm assumes that the base of the arm is stationary in relation to the
wheelchair and user. The software
does not take into account
the tilt movements of the lift arm.
Be cautious and attentive when using the robotic arm with the lift arm lowered, to avoid collisions
between the arm and your body and/or the wheelchair.
Ensure when lowering the lift arm that the gripper on the end of the robotic arm does not make
contact with the floor or ground.
The arm still holds up the full weight of any object, so attempting to lift a heavier object may
cause damage to the robotic arm or the lift arm. Such damage would fall outside the limitations of
the warranty.
Do not use the lift arm in heavy rain or snow. Do not immerse it in water or other liquids. Wipe
off the device after exposure to water or liquids.
Do not use the robotic arm or tilt the lift arm when the swing-away mechanism is engaged.
The swing-away action of the lift arm should only be activated when the wheelchair is
stationary. Do not move the wheelchair while the lift arm is swung out to the side. There is a risk
of the arm hitting an object and damaging the robotic arm or lift arm. Be cautious when driving the
wheelchair forward while the lift arm is lowered and the gripper of the robotic arm is close to the
floor / ground. Driving the wheelchair while the robotic arm is in contact with the floor / ground
could damage the robotic arm or the lift arm and /or cause serious injury.
When the lift arm is swung out to the side, do not apply extra weight on the robotic arm and lift
arm. This will put stress on the mounting connectors attaching the lift arm to the wheelchair, as well
as to the mounting rail of the wheelchair.
Make sure that the swing-away mechanism is latched and that the lift arm is level when passing
through narrow areas. This includes, but is not limited to, doorways, narrow hallways, or aisles in
shops.
