Rev. 9 (12-2021)
Safety Information
General Safety Rules
Everyone:
• Learn how automated equipment works.
• Understand the potential dangers of automated equipment before operating it.
• Energy sources must be shutdown, locked out, and tagged out before
preventive maintenance, adjustment, or service.
• Understand and be aware of potential energy sources that exist in the
SuperTrak conveyance platform after lockout and tagout (for example; the
strong permanent magnets when pallets are removed from the SuperTrak
conveyance platform).
• Long hair must be tied up and kept away from SuperTrak conveyance platform
devices to prevent entanglement.
• Do not wear loose clothing or dangling jewelry while operating or maintaining
the equipment, to prevent entanglement.
• Wear the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) for each task.
• Stay away and do not touch any live electrical wires or circuits. Qualified
technicians must wear PPE appropriate to the electrical hazard.
• Do not tamper, remove, or make safety controls ineffective.
Operators:
• Do not remove guarding, covers, or shields. Procedures that involve removing
guarding, covers or shields must only be performed by a trained, qualified
technician.
• Do not operate damaged equipment. Safety and protection features are
impaired in damaged equipment. Turn OFF energy sources immediately. Do not
use the automated equipment until a trained, qualified technician confirms it is
safe to operate.
Technicians:
• Do not perform service work alone. Only attempt internal service or
adjustments in the presence of a person capable of rendering first aid.
• Read the current SuperTrak™ GEN3 Operation and Maintenance Manual
before troubleshooting or servicing the equipment.
• Guarding, covers, or shields must not be removed, except for emergency or
maintenance purposes.
• If guarding is removed, clearly communicate (for example, with signs or
barriers) that the guarding is not functional.
• Guarding around moving devices that has been removed, must be replaced.

Safety Information
SuperTrak™ GEN3 System Operation and Maintenance Manual 7
Rev. 9 (12-2021)
• Do not install substitute parts or make any product modifications that are not
authorized by ATS because this may introduce new hazards.
• Use insulated tools when working with electrical equipment. Make sure qualified
electrical technicians wear appropriate PPE when completing live electrical work
according to the hazard assessment.
• Remove electrical power before changing fuses, or use approved fuse-pullers.
• Never use jumper wires or fuse substitutes to replace fuses.
• Replace the line fuses with fuses of the same voltage, current rating, and type.
Do not use repaired fuses or short-circuited fuse holders.
• Be prepared to handle electrical fires by keeping dry powder or carbon dioxide
extinguishers on hand at all times.
• Verify that all fittings and connections are tight once repair work is complete.
• Do not use compressed air to clean SuperTrak conveyance platform devices.
Use clean, lint-free cloths or a vacuum cleaner. Compressed air causes dirt and
lubricants to become airborne and contaminate assembly products and tooling.
Personal Protective Equipment
At a minimum, all users are recommended to wear the following personal
protective equipment (PPE) when working with or around the SuperTrak
conveyance platform:
• Safety glasses that meet the specific standard requirements the local
jurisdiction:
• North America - ANSI Z87.1
• Europe - EN 166 F
• Safety shoes that meet the specific standard requirements the local
jurisdiction:
• North America - ASTM F2413
• Europe - EN ISO 20345 S1

Safety Information
Hazardous Energy
Any energy source that presents a risk of injury to a person working on equipment
is considered a hazardous energy source. The SuperTrak conveyance platform
contains the following hazardous energy sources:
•Electrical on page 8
•Mechanical on page 9
•Thermal Hazards on page 10
To prevent accidental or unauthorized start-ups, always lockout and tagout
hazardous energy before completing any service or maintenance procedures.
Lockout and tagout procedures control hazardous energy supplies, making the
SuperTrak conveyance platform inoperable.
See Lockout and Tagout on page 11.
Electrical
The control panel contains high voltages. Electrical hazards may be present from
damaged or broken wires, open electrical boxes, or open control panels.
The control panel is designed to be integrated with a main electrical panel, which
includes a main power disconnect switch. Use the main power disconnect
switch to turn OFF SuperTrak conveyance platform power, but maintain UPS power in
the control panel. Use the SuperTrak conveyance platform power disconnect
switch to isolate the SuperTrak conveyance platform power and turn the UPS OFF. If
an electrical hazard occurs:
1. Stop the SuperTrak conveyance platform.
2. Turn the main power disconnect switch to the OFF position.
3. Turn the SuperTrak conveyance platform power disconnect switch to
the OFF position.
4. Allow stored energy of the UPS to discharge until the LED indicator of the UPS
is not illuminated.
Do not turn ON power to the SuperTrak conveyance platform until an electrical
technician has corrected the situation.
See Energy Controls on page 115.
Servicing an electrical panel that is still connected to its power source
may cause injury or death. Unless directed otherwise, turn the main
power disconnect switch to the OFF position. Lock out and tag out the
switch before accessing and servicing the electrical panel. Only qualified
electrical technicians should perform service on the electrical panel.
See Lockout and Tagout on page 11.
