The brake is mounted on each joint to prevent the arm from lowering due to its own weight while the
Controller power is OFF or the motor is OFF status. The brake does not work during replacement.
Be careful when performing maintenance work.
When removing the Joint #2 motor, tilt the Arm #2 and press it against the Arm #1.
