7. Emergency shutdown procedure
This section describes the procedure for an emergency shut down.
Step
Action
The FAMM is equipped with 2 emergency stop buttons (A). These buttons are situated at the
front of the machine, one on the left and one on the right side of the machine. These buttons
are for situations in which the FAMM needs to immediately stop all actions.
1
In case of an emergency, press an emergency stop button firmly. The FAMM will immediately
stop all actions.
Use of the emergency stop buttons is only allowed in an emergency situation and may not
be used under normal operational conditions to switch off the machine. Use of the
emergency stop button can potentially lead to the need to (re) calibrate the machine.
2
After the emergency situation is resolved, rotate the red part of the activated pushbutton, as
indicated on the button, until it “pops” out to release it.
3
After resetting the emergency stop button, reset the machine as described in section 6 step 7.
