Safety Precautions
It is the end-user's responsibility to make sure that the AMR is operated within its specifi-
cations, intended use, and intended environments.
The user is responsible for the safety of the AMR, which includes confirming that the sys-
tem is stable with any payload, payload structure, or other attachments while functioning
in the specified operating environment.
Although the AMR is commissioned at the factory, the user must perform commissioning
as part of the initial setup upon receipt.
If the AMR transports containers of liquid or other non-solid material, consider the effect
on the AMR's stability if their contents can shift. It is the end user's responsibility to en-
sure that the payload is properly secured to the AMR, and that payload shifting does not
create AMR instability.
The motor and motor assemblies will be exposed when the side skins are removed, ex-
posing potential pinch points. Take necessary precautions when moving an AMR without
its skins attached. The rear and top of the AMR also pose pinch hazards when the rear
skin and the top plate are removed.
You need to modify the safety zones if your payload overhangs the AMR's default dimen-
sions and if operating on a floor surface that has poor traction to the extent that the AMR
cannot stop reliably within the default zones. OMRON is not responsible for any risks in-
curred by modifying safety zone sizes or other Safety Laser Scanner settings.
While it is possible to generally reduce AMR deceleration settings for normal operation,
the maximum deceleration used in the case of emergency stops, or stops due to Safety
2
Laser Scanner intrusions cannot be lowered below 1300 mm/s . It is your responsibility
to ensure that the AMR and its load will remain stable in your operating environment at
all times, including during an emergency stop.
Lifting straps must be fastened with consideration to even weight distribution to ensure
that the AMR is level and stable when lifted. Uneven weight distribution while lifting may
cause the AMR to shift or become unstable which may result in injury or damage to
equipment.
Do not use organic solvents to clean any part of the AMR unless directed in the cleaning
instructions. Organic solvents might damage electronics resulting in an unsafe operating
state that could cause injury or damage to equipment.
Follow all unpacking safety instructions and use appropriate tools and equipment. Failure
to do so could result in personal injury or property damage.
Use safe lifting practices when moving the heavy objects such as the Power Supply Box,
Battery, Docking Target, and AMR.
The rare-earth magnet embedded in the AMR charging contacts creates a strong mag-
netic field. Magnetic fields can be hazardous if you have a medical implant. Keep a mini-
mum of 30 cm away from the AMR charging contacts.
Do not attempt to lift the AMR from the bottom with a forklift or similar devices. Doing so
could damage the AMR.
When operating the AMR with the pendant, it is the operator's responsibility to make sure
that no people or objects are in the immediate vicinity of the moving AMR.
