5. Manipulation
Manual mode
Manual mode means using the cleaning robot without a previous teaching process�
Manual mode is used for example when the robot is moved from its storage place
to the house to be cleaned� Before moving, the robot should be turned on� Manual
mode is reached from the start screen� When in manual mode, the cleaning robot
can be operated using the buttons on the operator panel or the joystick. We
recommend that you use manual mode to become familiar with the joystick and
the different movements.
Moving the robot
The robot can be manually moved either by manpower or by using the motors for
transport� For unpowered transport, the robot is declutched using the clutch
handle on the right-hand side of the handlebar� The robot can also be manually
operated using the transport motor from the operator panel or the joystick. To
make it easier moving or turning the robot, the transport wheel can be used, see
Figure 2� This is also controlled on the manual screen�
If the ground is inclined towards or away from you the motor must be
used, do not use the clutch or the transport wheel!
Also, take care to follow the instructions in the Safety section.
Joystick
The joystick is needed during the teaching process. The joystick is
connected to the cleaning robot via a six-meter cable, which facilitates
the teaching process and unwanted contamination by manure or
collision with the robot's telescopic arm is avoided�
The joystick is connected to the black socket, which can be found under the hood
on the rear right-hand side of the cleaning robot, see Figure 2� The plug must be
turned 90 degrees for secure tightening when connected. The joystick is used to
control all motions of the cleaning robot, including turning water on and off. See
Figure 5 for an overview of the joystick.
