1.2 Design and Installation Safety
Only trained personnel should design and install the robot system. Trained personnel
are defined as those who have taken robot system training and maintenance training
classed held by the manufacture, dealer or local representative company, or those who
understand the manuals thoroughly and have the same knowledge and skill level as
those who have completed the training courses.
To ensure safety, a safeguard must be installed for the robot system.
The following items are safety precautions for design personnel:
Warning
★The robot and controller must be used within the environmental
conditions described in their respective manuals. This product has
been designed and manufactured strictly in a normal indoor
environment. Using the product in an environment that exceeds the
specified environmental conditions may not only shorten the life
cycle of the product but may also cause serious safety problems.
★The robot system must be used within the installation requirements
described in the manuals. Using the robot system outside of the
installation requirements may not only shorten the life cycle of the
product but also cause serious safety problems.

1.3 Operation Safety
The following items are safety precautions for qualified Operator personnel:
Warning
★Do not enter the operating area of the robot while the power is
ON.Entering the operating area with the power ON is extremely
hazardous and may cause serious safety problems as the robot
may move even if it seems to be stopped.
★Before operating the robot system, make sure that no one is
inside the safeguarded area. The robot system can be operated
in the mode for teaching even when someone is inside the
safeguarded area. The motion of the robot is always in
restricted (low speeds and low power) status to secure the
safety of an operator. However, operating the robot system
while someone is inside the safeguarded area is extremely
hazardous and may result in serious safety problems in case
that the robot moves unexpectedly.
Warning
★To shut off power to the robot system, pull out the power plug
from the power source. Be sure to connect the AC power cable
to a power receptacle. Do not connect it directly to a factory
power source.
★Before performing any replacement procedure, turn off the
controller and related equipment, and then pull out the power
plug from the power source. Performing any replacement
procedure with the power ON is extremely hazardous and may
result in electric shock and malfunction of the robot system.
★Do not pull out the motor connectors while the power is ON.
Pulling out the connectors while the power ON is extremely
hazardous and may result in serious bodily injury as the robot
may move abnormally, and also may result in electric shock and
malfunction of the robot system.
Caution
★Whenever possible, only one person should operate the robot
system. If it is necessary to operate the robot system with more
than one person, ensure that all people involved communicate
with each other as to what they are doing and take all necessary
safety precautions.

1.4 Emergency Stop
If the robot moves abnormally during operation, press the emergency stop immediately.
Stops the power supply to the motor, the arm stops in the shortest distance.
However, avoid pressing the emergency stop switch unnecessarily while the robot is
running normally. Otherwise, the robot may hit theperiphery equipment and the track
may be different from that in nomal operation.It may also reduce the life of the robot
system.
To place the system in emergency mode during normal operation, press the emergency
stop switch when the robot is not moving.
Do not press the emergency stop switch unnecessarily while the robot is operating.
Do not turn off the controller when the robot is running.
If user stop the robot by turning off the controller, be aware of the following:
It may reduce the life of robot and damage reduction gear;
It may results in gaps between joint.
The robot is forced to stop when it is running because the power to controller is off, user
need to check the following after the power is on:
Whether the joint is in the right place.
Before using the emergency stop switch, be aware of the following:
The emergency stop switch should be used to stop the robot only in case of
emergency.
To stop the robot operating the program except in emergency, use stop commands.
For safeguard system, do not use the circuit of emergency stop.
