The following actions are strictly prohibited and could result in injury or damage to the
equipment.
•
Riding on the AMR.
•
Towing applications.
•
Exceeding the maximum payload limit.
•
Operating in environments with life support systems.
•
Operating in residential areas.
•
Operating on non-stationary areas, including moving floors or any type of land vehicle,
watercraft, or aircraft.
•
Exceeding the maximum recommended speed, acceleration, deceleration, or rotation
limits. Rotational speed becomes more significant when the payload's center of gravity
is increasingly offset from the AMR's center of gravity.
•
Dropping, driving off a ledge, or operating irresponsibly.
•
Allowing the AMR to drive through an opening that has an automatic gate or door, un-
less the door and AMR are configured correctly with the Call / Door Box option.
•
Throwing an object in front of the AMR or suddenly stepping into the path of the AMR.
The AMR braking system cannot be expected to function as designed and specified in
such instances.
•
Exposing the AMR to rain or moisture.
•
Using unauthorized parts to repair the AMR.
•
Powering ON the AMR without its wireless antennas in place.
•
Operating the AMR in hazardous environments where there is explosive gas, an oil
mist, or a corrosive atmosphere.
•
Operating the AMR in an environment that contains ionizing radiation.
•
Using non-approved batteries or charging systems.
The Charging Station, battery, and AMR transfer high electric power and contain hazard-
ous voltages. You must take necessary precautions to avoid electric shock. Follow ap-
propriate Lock-Out, Tag-Out (LOTO) instructions prior to any installation and mainte-
nance work performed on or near these items.
No modification is allowed that may affect functionality unless a complete risk assess-
ment is performed. Any modifications made to the AMR can lead to loss of safety or
functionality of the AMR therefore it is the end-user's responsibility to perform complete
risk assessment after making any modifications to the AMR, and to confirm that all safety
features of the AMR are fully functional.
The AMR as a partly-completed machine is intended to be incorporated into other machi-
nery and must not be put into service until the final machinery into which it is to be incor-
porated has been declared in conformity with the provisions of EC Machinery Directive
2006/42/EC, where appropriate.
The assembly instructions shall then form part of the technical file for the final machine.
Use only the specified tools, equipment, and OMRON-supplied spare parts to service
and maintain the AMR according to the specified service intervals. Failure to do so could
result in an unsafe operating state that might result in personal injury or damage to prop-
erty.
It is the end-user's responsibility to perform a task-based risk assessment and to imple-
ment appropriate safety measures at the point of use of the AMR in accordance with lo-
cal regulations.
If you are using a user-supplied E-STOP, you must perform commissioning to verify the
emergency stop functionality before putting the AMR into service.
It is the end-user's responsibility to make sure that the AMR design and implementation
complies with all local standards and legal requirements.
