Chapter 3 Preparing the Robot

1 Robot Installation Environment

WARNING

Avoid installing the robot in locations where the ambient conditions may exceed the allowable ambient temperature or relative humidity, or in envi- ronments where excessive moisture, corrosive gas, metallic powder or dust is generated.

Malfunctions, failures or short circuits may otherwise result.

WARNING

This robot is not designed for operation in environments where inflam- mable of explosive substances are present.

Do not use the robot in environments containing inflammable gas, dust or liquids.

Explosions or fire might otherwise result.

WARNING

Do not use the robot in locations subject to excessive vibration. Robot installation bolts may otherwise become loose causing the robot to fall over.

!CAUTION

Avoid using the robot in locations subject to electromagnetic interference, elec- trostatic discharge or radio frequency interference.

Malfunctions might otherwise occur.

Always install the robot in the following type of environment.

Item
