Troubleshooting - Kosmos Cyborg Hand Manual

TROUBLESHOOTING

If the cyborg hand's fingers are not working, check the following:
1. Check if there is air in the G1 cylinder. If so, complete the steps on page 51.
2. Use pages 20–21 to check that the hydraulic cylinders are assembled correctly.
3. Check that the fingers are correctly assembled and correctly connected together (check on pages
14–16).
If the cyborg hand's thumb doesn't work properly, check the following:
1. Check if there is air in the G2 cylinder. If so, follow the steps on page 53.
2. Check if the hydraulic tube is twisted and blocked.
3. Check that the hydraulic cylinder is assembled correctly. Compare pages 20, 21, and 25.
4. Check that you have assembled the thumb correctly. Go to pages 27-29.
Air in the cylinders limits the function of the
hydraulic system. The fingers and thumb will not
flex and extend as well if there is air in the
hydraulic systems.
Regardless of how long you have played with the
cyborg hand, air can get into the hydraulic system
from time to time. You can find out how to get rid
of it on the next page.
