For my project it would be useful to test if the stepper is positioned properly by turning the axis of the motor by hand (while it is not connected to anything). Will this damage the engine?

Does a stepper motor get damaged if you turn it by hand?

And theres no risk of damaging the motor? (because of internal mechanics or something)
