Using the Column Release Knob
In the unlikely event of power loss or other modes of failure, coinciding
with the elevation column being stuck in an extended position, the
column release knob can be operated. This has the effect of
disengaging the robotic drive and allowing the elevation column to be
safely lowered, so that the FE-165 can be moved or the payload
accessed.
WARNING! Isolate the FE-165 from the AC supply before
operating the column release knob. Ensure that all four
wheel brakes are applied.
WARNING! Two person operation. Do not attempt to lower
the payload using the column release knob without the
presence and assistance of another person.
1.
Turn and hold the column release knob fully anti-clockwise to
disengage the robotic drive.
2.
With the column release knob being held in the release mode
position (A), the payload can be carefully lowered (B). Heavier
payloads may slowly lower without the need for assistance.

go of the column release knob to automatically re-engage the
robotic drive.
