Wiring safety points

WARNING
• ALWAYS SHUT OFF ALL PHASES OF THE POWER SUPPLY EXTERNALLY BEFORE STARTING INSTALLATION OR
WIRING WORK. FAILURE TO SHUT OFF ALL PHASES MAY CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR PRODUCT DAMAGE.
CAUTION
• Make sure that no foreign matter such as cutting chips or wire scraps enter the robot controller. Malfunctions, breakdown or fire may
result if they have entered.
• Always store the cables connected to the robot controller in a conduit or clamp them securely in place. If the cables are not stored in
a conduit or properly clamped, excessive play or movement or mistakenly pulling on the cable may damage the connector or cables,
and poor cable contact may cause equipment malfunctions.
• Do not modify the cables and do not place any heavy object on them. Handle them carefully to avoid damage. Damaged cables may
cause malfunction or electrical shock.
• If there is a possibility that the cables connected to the robot controller may be damaged, protect them with a cover, etc.
• Do not apply excessive loads or impacts to the connectors when making cable connections. The connector pins may become bent or
the internal PC board may be damaged.
• When disconnecting the cable from the robot controller, detach by gripping the connector itself and not by tugging on the cable.
Loosen the screws on the connector (if fastened with the screws), and then disconnect the cable. Detaching by pulling on the cable
itself may damage the connector or cables, and poor cable contact may cause equipment malfunctions.

• WHEN IT IS NECESSARY TO OPERATE THE ROBOT WHILE YOU ARE WITHIN THE ROBOT MOVEMENT RANGE
SUCH AS FOR TEACHING OR MAINTENANCE/INSPECTION TASKS, ALWAYS CARRY THE PROGRAMMING BOX
WITH YOU SO THAT YOU CAN IMMEDIATELY STOP THE ROBOT OPERATION IN CASE OF AN ABNORMAL OR
HAZARDOUS CONDITION. INSTALL AN ENABLE DEVICE IN THE EXTERNAL SAFETY CIRCUIT IS NEEDED. ALSO
SET THE ROBOT MOVING SPEED TO 3% OR LESS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY CAUSE
SERIOUS ACCIDENTS INVOLVING INJURY OR DEATH.
