• DO NOT DISASSEMBLE OR MODIFY ANY PART IN THE ROBOT CONTROLLER AND PROGRAMMING BOX. DO NOT
OPEN ANY COVER. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION MAY CAUSE ELECTRICAL SHOCK, BREAKDOWN,
MALFUNCTION, INJURY, OR FIRE.
• IF A COMPONENT USED IN THE ROBOT OR CONTROLLER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED OR REPAIRED, ALWAYS
FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS FROM OMRON. INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE OF THE CONTROLLER OR ROBOT
BY ANY PERSON WHO DOES NOT HAVE THE REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE IS DANGEROUS AND MUST
BE AVOIDED.
• WHEN PERFORMING MAINTENANCE OR INSPECTION OF THE ROBOT CONTROLLER UNDER OUR INSTRUCTIONS,
WAIT AT LEAST 30 MINUTES FOR THE YRC SERIES AFTER TURNING THE POWER OFF. SOME COMPONENTS IN THE
ROBOT CONTROLLER MAY BE HOT OR STILL RETAIN A HIGH VOLTAGE SHORTLY AFTER OPERATION, SO BURNS
OR ELECTRICAL SHOCK MAY OCCUR IF THOSE PARTS ARE TOUCHED.
• DURING STARTUP OR MAINTENANCE WORK, DISPLAY AN EASY TO UNDERSTAND SIGN OR MESSAGE ON THE
PROGRAMMING UNIT OR OPERATION PANEL TO PREVENT ANYONE OTHER THAN PERSONNEL FOR THAT WORK
FROM MISTAKENLY OPERATING A START OR SELECTOR SWITCH. IF NEEDED, TAKE OTHER MEASURES SUCH AS
LOCKING THE COVER ON THE OPERATION PANEL.
• DECIDE ON "WORK INSTRUCTIONS" IN CASES WHERE PERSONNEL MUST WORK WITHIN THE ROBOT'S WORKING
ENVELOPE TO PERFORM STARTUP OR MAINTENANCE WORK. MAKE SURE THE WORKERS KNOW THESE "WORK
INSTRUCTIONS" WELL.
CAUTION
• When using ferrite cores for noise elimination, fit them to the power cable as close to the robot controller and/or the robot as
possible, to prevent malfunctions due to noise.
• Back up the robot controller internal data in an external storage device. The robot controller internal data (programs, point data, etc.)
may be lost or deleted for unexpected reasons. Always make a backup of the internal data.
• Do not use thinner, benzene, and alcohol to wipe clean the surface of the programming box. The surface sheet may be damaged or
printed letters or marks might be erased. Use a soft, dry cloth and gently wipe the surface.
• Do not use a hard or pointed object to operate the keys on the programming box. Malfunction or breakdown may result if the keys
are damaged. Use your fingers to operate the keys.
• Do not insert any SD memory card other than specified into the SD memory card slot of the programming box. Malfunction or
breakdown may result if a wrong memory card is used.
• Do not leave the SD memory card inserted into the programming box. Doing so may cause malfunction or breakdown. Insert the SD
memory card into the programming box only when making a data backup or loading the backup data.

Safety precautions during robot operation
DANGER
• NEVER ENTER THE ROBOT'S WORKING ENVELOPE WHILE THE ROBOT IS OPERATING OR THE MAIN POWER IS
TURNED ON. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS INSTRUCTION MAY CAUSE SERIOUS ACCIDENTS INVOLVING INJURY OR
DEATH. INSTALL A SAFEGUARD (SAFETY ENCLOSURE) OR A GATE INTERLOCK WITH AN AREA SENSOR TO KEEP
ALL PERSONS AWAY FROM THE ROBOT'S WORKING ENVELOPE.
• 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 AS NEEDED. ALSO
SET THE ROBOT MOVING SPEED TO 3% OR LESS. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS MAY CAUSE
SERIOUS ACCIDENTS INVOLVING INJURY OR DEATH.
WARNING
• ONLY PERSONNEL TRAINED IN SAFETY AND ROBOT OPERATION MAY OPERATE THE ROBOT. OPERATION BY ANY
PERSON WHO HAS NOT RECEIVED THE PROPER TRAINING IS VERY DANGEROUS AND MUST BE AVOIDED.
