Precautions for Safe Use
• Acoustic emission from these robots may be up to 70 dB (A) at 1 m distance under worst-case con-
ditions. Typical values will be lower, depending on payload, speed, acceleration, and mounting. Ap-
propriate safety measures should be taken, such as ear protection and display of a warning sign.
• Any moving robot requires some distance to stop. This requires more distance at high operating
speeds or heavier payloads. When stopping a robot, make sure that there is no interference with
other equipment.
• Do not expose the shipping container to excessive shock and vibration. This could damage the ro-
bot.
• Using improper lubrication products on the robot may damage it.
• After an operator places the robot in Manual mode using the Front Panel key switch, they should
remove the key for safety purposes.
• If the supplied Front Panel is not used, a High Power indicator light must be present in the system.
This indicator light must be amber in color. It must be either mounted to the robot or integrated into
the work cell where it is visible from all approaches or entry points.
• If a supplementary audible means of robot operation is provided, it shall exceed the ambient noise
at the end-use application.
• You can burn yourself. Do not touch the robot after it has been running at high ambient tempera-
tures or at fast cycle times (over 60 cycles per minute). The robot surface temperature can exceed
85° C.
• During manual operation, ensure all persons are a safe distance away from the robot work enve-
lope.
• The robot can be lifted by hand. Only use the base and inner link when lifting the robot. Never ma-
neuver the robot using the quill or flyover assemblies.
• To stop the robot in an emergency, press any E-stop button and then follow the internal procedures
of your company or organization defined for an emergency situation.
• If a fire occurs on the robot, use a CO
• In case of entrapment of a person by the robot or any other emergency or abnormal situation, you
can manually move the inner and outer links to a safe position while 48 VDC High Power is disa-
bled. A brake device prevents Joints 3 and 4 from moving when High Power is disabled and can
only be released while 24 VDC Control Power is present.
• Prior to placing the robot in Automatic Mode, all safeguards must be returned to their safe state.
• After the robot is placed in Manual mode using the Front Panel key switch, the key should be re-
moved for safety purposes.
