one hand poised over the stop button to prevent any accident due to incorrect part or
positioning of the robot.
Always test a new program at a low speed, say 1000

ST robot arms are characterised by having no stiffness when switched off and are thus
difficult to carry as they are limp when carried. Always carry the robot with at least
two hands. When putting the robot down take care not to trap fingers under the base.
