2 Safety Information on Operation
12
If the robot is combined with other machinery in a system, make sure that the other machin-
ery cannot damage the robot.
Do not expose the robot system to permanent magnetic fields. Very strong magnetic fields
can damage the robot system.
Ensure that suitable protection devices (e.g. separating protection device, light curtain, or
safety laser scanner) were installed. The protection devices must stop the robot’s movement
within the danger zone. Check the protection devices for proper function every day.
Do not enter the danger zone of the robot during operation, and do not touch the robot.
Only operate the robot system in undamaged condition. Never modify the robot system.
fruitcore robotics GmbH excludes any liability if the product has been modified.
Check the emergency stop and safety stop functions daily.
The robot system must be checked for externally visible damage and defects at least once
per day/shift. Changes or damage that have occurred must be reported to the person or of-
fice responsible immediately.
In the event of malfunctions, switch off the robot system immediately and secure it
against restarting, including by third parties. Report malfunctions immediately to the op-
erations manager and rectify or have them rectified immediately.
Only perform switch on and switch off processes in accordance with the Assembly instruc-
tions.
It is only permissible to disconnect the horstPANEL from or connect it to the horstCONTROL
when it is disconnected from the power supply.
Ensure that only the connected horstPANEL is in the vicinity of the robot to avoid confusions
with inactive emergency stop buttons.

The robot system must be operated only in technically perfect condition and with functional
protection devices.
The robot must be used only within suitable protection devices (e.g. separating protection
device, light curtain, or safety laser scanner).
In the event of an emergency, the robot system must be stopped with the emergency stop button
When integrated in a complete system, the robot system must be integrated in the emergency
stop circuit of the higher-level system. Observe the information on this in subsection
