SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

The robot controller, teach pendant, and operating panel should be installed outside the robot's restricted space and in a place where you can observe all of the robot’s movements when operating the robot controller, teach pendant, or operating panel.

Pressure gauges, oil pressure gauges and other gauges should be installed in an easy-to-check location.

If there is any possibility of the electrical wiring or hydraulic/pneumatic piping being damaged, protect them with a cover or similar item.

Emergency stop switches should be provided in a position where they can be reached easily should it be necessary to stop the robot immediately.

(1)The emergency stop switches should be red.

(2)Emergency stop switches should be designed so that they will not be released after pressed, automatically or mistakenly by any other person.

(3)Emergency stop switches should be separate from the power switch.

Operating status indicators should be positioned in such a way where workers can easily see whether the robot is on temporary halt or on an emergency or abnormal stop.
