Chapter 2 - Safety
All personnel must observe sound safety practices during the installation, operation, and
testing of all electrically powered equipment. To avoid injury or damage to equipment,
always remove power by disconnecting the AC power from the source before attempting
any repair or upgrade activity. Use appropriate lockout procedures to reduce the risk of
power being restored by another person while you are working on the system.
2.13 Safety Equipment for Operators
Adept advises operators to wear extra safety equipment in the workcell. For safety
reasons operators must wear the following when they are in the robot workcell.
• Safety glasses
• Protective headgear (hard hats)
• Safety shoes
Install warning signs around the workcell to ensure that anyone working around the
robot system knows they must wear safety equipment.
2.14 Protection Against Unauthorized Operation
The system must be protected against unauthorized use. Restrict access to the keyboard
and the pendant by locking them in a cabinet or use another adequate method to prevent
access to them.
