All teaching work must be carried out by an operator who has received special training.
(This also applies to maintenance work with the power source turned ON.)
Enforcement of safety training
For teaching work, prepare a work plan related to the methods and procedures of
operating the robot, and to the measures to be taken when an error occurs or when
restarting. Carry out work following this plan. (This also applies to maintenance work
with the power source turned ON.)
Preparation of work plan
Prepare a device that allows operation to be stopped immediately during teaching work.
(This also applies to maintenance work with the power source turned ON.)
Setting of emergency stop switch
During teaching work, place a sign indicating that teaching work is in progress on the
start switch, etc. (This also applies to maintenance work with the power source turned
ON.)
Indication of teaching work in progress
Provide a fence or enclosure during operation to prevent contact of the operator and
robot.
Installation of safety fence
Establish a set signaling method to the related operators for starting work, and follow
this method.
Signaling of operation start
As a principle turn the power OFF during maintenance work. Place a sign indicating that
maintenance work is in progress on the start switch, etc.
Indication of maintenance work in progress
Before starting work, inspect the robot, emergency stop switch and other related
devices, etc., and confirm that there are no errors.
