: To ensure safety, a safeguard must be installed for the robot system. For
details on the safeguard, refer to the Installation and Design Precautions
in the Safety chapter of the EPSON RC+ User's Guide.
: Install the Manipulator at a location with sufficient space so that a tool or
a work piece on the end effector does not reach a wall or a safeguard when
the Manipulator extends its arm fully while holding a work piece.
Installing the Manipulator at a location with insufficient space is
extremely hazardous and may result in serious bodily injury and/or severe
equipment damage to the robot system as a tool or a work piece may
collide with a wall and a safeguard.
: Before installing and operating the Manipulator, make sure that all parts
of the Manipulator are in place and have no external defects. Missing or
defective parts may cause improper operation of the Manipulator.
Improper operation of the Manipulator is extremely hazardous and may
result in serious bodily injury and/or severe equipment damage to the
robot system.
: When mounting the Manipulator on a wall or ceiling, secure the
Manipulator to the wall or ceiling that has enough strength and rigidity.
Mounting the Manipulator on a wall or ceiling that has insufficient
strength and rigidity is extremely hazardous and may result in serious
bodily injury and/or severe equipment damage to the robot system as the
Manipulator may fall or vibrate.
: When mounting the Manipulator on a wall or ceiling, for safety purposes,
attach the support to the Manipulator base to prevent the Manipulator from
falling. If the Manipulator falls, it is extremely hazardous and may result
in serious bodily injury and/or severe equipment damage to the robot
system.
