  • Robot stops automatically at inclinations of > 20°!
  • Collision sensor! Robot moves around obstacles.
  • Danger of injury! Never reach into running knives.

Programme automatic start

After activation, the individual digits of the safety code must be entered! First connect the mains. Completely charge the robot before initial commissioning!

Manual start

After activation, the individual digits of the safety code must be entered! First connect the mains. Completely charge the robot before initial commissioning!
