Releasing The Locking Brakes - Dräger Agila CC Instructions For Use Manual

Releasing the locking brakes

WARNING
Risk of personal injury and/or damage to the
device
Fully equipped (= heavily laden) ceiling supply
units require high braking forces due to the
inertia of the weight. The braking force must
be applied by the user because the ceiling
supply unit may not be stopped with the lock-
ing brake.
The bearings on the arm systems are always fitted
with friction brakes. Additionally, pneumatic brakes
may also be present.
Friction brakes
 Arm systems with friction brakes can be posi-
tioned without further preparation, see "Posi-
tioning the ceiling supply unit" on page 22.
Pneumatic brakes
CAUTION
Damage to the pneumatic brake
Systems with a pneumatic brake must not be
turned with the locking brake engaged. The brake
can be damaged as a result.
The system must not be moved without the brake
being released and the key may only be released
after the system has come to a standstill. Move-
ments of the support arm may only be braked by
hand.
 For arm systems with a pneumatic brake, the
brake must be released using the keys.
The keys are installed in the media head or media
column.
