the brake. For this reason, do not switch on
and off the machine (and thus activate the
brake) more often than approx. 40 times
per hour.
The brake is designed to execute approx.
30,000 braking actions. With increasing
wear of the brake disk, the slowing-down
time will increase. When slowing down ta-
kes more than 4 seconds, the brake must
be replaced.
