Work Area Safety
Carelessness contributes to serious accidents in the
work area. To ensure safety, enforce the following
precautions:
1.5.4
Operation Safety
• Secure the position of the NX100 after
setting up.
Attach the NX100 to the floor or rack, etc., using the
screw holes on the bottom of the NX100.
Failure to observe this caution could lead to injury
or equipment damage if the NX100 should shift or
fall.
• Be familiar with the connection diagram
before wiring the NX100, and perform the
wiring in accordance with the connection
diagram.
There is a danger of equipment damage or injury
due to mis-wiring and unexpected movement of the
equipment.
• Take precautions when wiring and piping
between the NX100, manipulator, and
peripheral equipment. Run the piping,
wiring, or cables through a pit or use a
protective cover, so that they are not
stepped on by personnel or run over by
the forklift.
• Install a safeguarding around the
manipulator to prevent any accidental
contact with the manipulator while the
power is on. Post a warning sign stating
“Off-limits During Operation” at the
entrance of the enclosure. The gate of
the safeguarding must be equipped with a
safety interlock. Be sure the interlock
operates correctly before use.
Failure to observe this caution may result in a
serious accident due to contact with the
manipulator.

• Store tools and similar equipment in
proper locations outside of the enclosure.
Tools and loose equipment should not be left on the
floor around the manipulator, NX100, or welding
fixture, etc., as damage to equipment can occur if
the manipulator comes in contact with objects or
equipment left in the work area, or injury may result
in if the hit objects jump toward you.
• Persons operating or inspecting the
manipulator should be trained as required
by applicable laws and company policies.
(Refer to section 1.2 Special Training)
• When attaching a tool such as the welding
torch to the manipulator, be sure the
power supply of the NX100 and the tool is
off, lock the switch, and display a
warning sign.
Turning the power on during tool installation may
case electric shock or injury due to unexpected
movement of the manipulator.
• Never exceed the rated capacity of the
manipulator (capacity can be found in the
specifications section of the manipulator
manual.)
Failure to observe this caution may result in injury or
damage to equipment.
• Teach jobs from outside the manipulator's
work area whenever possible.
