Chapter One Safety
1.1 Safety Instructions
According to the national and local laws and regulations, great importance has been attached to safety
protection in the operation of an industrial robot.
The employer of the robot operator is responsible for the physical damage or property loss in case of
an accident. Therefore it is strongly recommended that an operator should fully understand the contents
described in this manual or elsewhere and abide by the health and safety regulations.
For safety reasons, it is the fundamental requirement to abide by the instructions described in this
manual and other manuals of EFORT. The manual serves as a general introduction to safety regulations
which does not take all the aspects into consideration. Therefore, it is highly important for an operator to
take preventative measures according to the application system and the work environment when operating a
robot.
An operator must read the following information carefully and pay special attention to the safety
measures described.
An EFORT industrial robot user should promise to abide by its national or regional safety laws and

cabinet)
The quick start manual includes all the safety descriptions of the robot and controller. The robot should
be well designed and manufactured to ensure that it can enter all the required areas when it is operated,
tested or maintained. The robot should be able to enter the work areas freely if there is a safety prevention
frame. An operator should not be exposed in danger of slipping, stumbling or falling.
