1-4 Safety Precautions
1Before starting use
1.2.1 Precautions given in the separate Safety Manual
The points of the precautions given in the separate "Safety Manual" are given below.
Refer to the actual "Safety Manual" for details.
When automatic operation of the robot is performed using multiple control devices
(GOT, programmable controller, push-button switch), the interlocking of operation
rights of the devices, etc. must be designed by the customer.
Use the robot within the environment given in the specifications. Failure to do so
could lead to a drop or reliability or faults. (Temperature, humidity, atmosphere,
noise environment, etc.)
Transport the robot with the designated transportation posture. Transporting the
robot in a non-designated posture could lead to personal injuries or faults from
dropping.
Always use the robot installed on a secure table. Use in an instable posture could
lead to positional deviation and vibration.
Wire the cable as far away from noise sources as possible. If placed near a noise
source, positional deviation or malfunction could occur.
Do not apply excessive force on the connector or excessively bend the cable.
Failure to observe this could lead to contact defects or wire breakage.
Make sure that the workpiece weight, including the hand, does not exceed the
rated load or tolerable torque. Exceeding these values could lead to alarms or
faults.
Securely install the hand and tool, and securely grasp the workpiece. Failure to
observe this could lead to personal injuries or damage if the object comes off or
flies off during operation.
Securely ground the robot and controller. Failure to observe this could lead to
malfunctioning by noise or to electric shock accidents.
Indicate the operation state during robot operation. Failure to indicate the state
could lead to operators approaching the robot or to incorrect operation.
When carrying out teaching work in the robot's movement range, always secure
the priority right for the robot control. Failure to observe this could lead to personal
injuries or damage if the robot is started with external commands.
Keep the jog speed as low as possible, and always watch the robot. Failure to do
so could lead to interference with the workpiece or peripheral devices.
After editing the program, always confirm the operation with step operation before
starting automatic operation. Failure to do so could lead to interference with
peripheral devices because of programming mistakes, etc.
Make sure that if the safety fence entrance door is opened during automatic oper-
ation, the door is locked or that the robot will automatically stop. Failure to do so
could lead to personal injuries.
Never carry out modifications based on personal judgments, or use non-desig-
nated maintenance parts.
Failure to observe this could lead to faults or failures.
When the robot arm has to be moved by hand from an external area, do not place
hands or fingers in the openings. Failure to observe this could lead to hands or fin-
gers catching depending on the posture.
