All teachingwork must be carried out by an operator who has received special training.
(This also applies to maintenance work with the power source turned ON.)
→ Enforcement of safety training
For teaching work, prepare a work plan related to the methods and procedures of operating the robot, and to the measures to be taken when an error occurs or when restarting. Carry out work following this plan. (Thisalso applies to maintenance work with the
power source turned ON.)
→ Preparation of work plan
Prepare a device that allows operation to be stopped immediately during teaching work.
(This also applies to maintenance work with the power source turned ON.)
→ Setting of emergency stop switch
During teaching work, place a sign indicating that teaching work is in progress on the
start switch,etc. (This also applies to maintenance work with the power source turned
ON.)
→ Indication of teaching work in progress
Provide a fence or enclosure during operation to prevent contact of the operator and
robot.
→ Installation of safety fence
Establish a set signaling method to the related operators for starting work, and follow
this method.
→ Signaling of operation start
As a principleturn the power OFF during maintenance work. Place a sign indicating that
maintenance work is in progress on the start switch, etc.
→ Indication of maintenance work in progress
Before starting work, inspect the robot, emergency stop switch and other related
devices, etc., and confirm that there are no errors.
→ Inspection before starting work

The points of the precautions given in theseparate "Safety Manual" are given below.
Refer to the actual "Safety Manual" for details.

CAUTION

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.)

CAUTION

Transport the robot with the designated transportation posture. Transporting the robot
in anon-designated posture could lead to personal injuries or faults from dropping.

CAUTION

Always use the robot installed on a secure table. Use in an instable posture could lead
to positional deviation and vibration.

CAUTION

Wire the cable as far away from noise sources as possible. If placed near a noise source,
positional deviation or malfunction could occur.

CAUTION

Do not applyexcessive force on the connector or excessively bend the cable. Failure to
observe this could lead to contact defects or wire breakage.

CAUTION

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.

WARNING
WARNING
CAUTION
WARNING

Securely install the hand and tool, andsecurely 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 operatorsapproaching 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.

CAUTION

Keep the jog speed as low as possible, and always watch the robot. Failure to do so
could lead to...
