2.2. Transportation

Features
Besides moving through waypoints, the program can send I/O signals to other
machines at certain points in the robot's path, and perform commands like
if..then and loop, based on variables and I/O signals.

2.1.3 Risk assessment

A complete robot installation (Robot system / robot application / robot inte-
gration) is a machine. Since the robot cannot operate without being installed
and without having a specific tool, it is not considered as a complete machine.
A risk assessment shall be performed during each installation of the robot, see
chapter 1.1.
2.2 Transportation
Transport the robot in the original packaging. Save the packaging material in a
dry place; you may need to pack down and move the robot later on.
Lift both tubes of the robot arm at the same time when moving it from the pack-
aging to the installation place. Hold the robot in place until all mounting bolts
are securely tightened at the base of the robot.
The controller box shall be lifted by the handle.

2.3.2 Turning on the Robot
