Helpful Expert Reply:
No, you should not be able to move the Sidewinder arm by hand such as with Sidewinder # ST400-5AS16K. If you could move it by hand then that would indicate something is amiss with the Sidewinder. The fact that you can't move yours by hand means that it is in good working order!
