7.9 Changing Welding Arm and Welding Arm Options

Caution: To activate the desired welding arm, the motor icon (M) must be switched off.
Make sure that the correct welding arm is selected to prevent damage to the drive and hazardous situa-
tions.
Risk of crushing: There is a risk of crushing due to the movement of mechanical parts. When changing
the welding arms, make sure that no body parts become trapped. Set the "Wedge In" and "Clamp Force"
sliders to "Manual" to prevent the machine from starting inadvertently.
