The heavier the load the more attention has to be paid to balancing the carrier with that load The heavier the load the closer the weight should be to the carrier surface The center of gravity should be as low as possible and centered as well possible Avoid large or heavy weights sticking out far above the carrier surface mproper balancing can result in irregular rotation of the carrier and possible heating up of the base module Extreme irregular rotation could result in the carrier falling down When a load is placed on top of the carrier the center When a load is placed on to p of the carrier the of that load center of gravity should not be placed center of that load center of gravity should not be too high If the load is placed too high the carrier and placed too high If the load is placed too high the load might tip over The numbers below give the maxi carrier and load might tip over The numbers below mum height of the center of gravity of that load give the maximum height of the center of gravity of that load Crealev strongly advises to persons away from the levi eep non authorized ated carrier a distance Touching the levitated of 1 meter is recommended carrier or blocking of the sensor eye on the module may cause the carrier to fall down and can pos sibly cause injury or damage Crealev recommends the placement of a protective casing like for example a transparent tube around
