1.2.2.2. CAUTION - Hot parts may cause burns!
Description
During normal operation, many manipulator parts become hot, especially the drive motors
and gears. Sometimes areas around these parts also become hot. Touching these may cause
burns of various severity.
Because of a higher environment temperature, more surfaces on the manipulator get hot and
may result in burns.
Elimination
The instructions below detail how to avoid the dangers specified above:
Action
Info
1. Always use your hand, at some distance, to feel if heat is
radiating from the potentially hot component before
actually touching it.
2. Wait until the potentially hot component has cooled if it is
to be removed or handled in any other way.
