Abstract
A method of bailing out a surgical instrument assembly attached to a control interface is disclosed. The method comprises the steps of actuating an operating system of the surgical instrument assembly through an operating stroke, actuating a manually-driven bailout system to at least partially retract the operating system, and activating the manually-driven bailout system to at least partially advance the operating system through the operating stroke.
