Manual brake release (CO2) / Lockable manual release of the brake (CO3)
A locked brake can cause injury and material damage
No braking effect when the manual brake release lever is locked. The brake is then
permanently released.
Before commissioning the geared motor, ensure that the brake can be applied.
Unscrew the manual brake release lever and keep it separate from the geared motor.
The brake can be optionally equipped with a manual release. This allows the brake to be
manually released in a no-current state. The manual release is also available with a locking
mechanism. This allows a brake to be locked in the released (opened) state. This function is
only permissible when setting up systems or when carrying out maintenance work. Before
(re)commissioning, the manual brake release lever (that can be unscrewed) should be
removed and the brake should be checked to ensure that it functions perfectly.
Keep the lockable manual brake release in the released state for maintenance work.
