Chapter 1 Using the Robot Safely
(4) Do not use the robot in environments containing inflammable
gas, etc.
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.
(5) Do not use the robot in locations possible subject to electro-
magnetic interference, etc.
WARNING
Avoid using the robot in locations subject to electromagnetic interfer-
ence, electrostatic discharge or radio frequency interference.
Malfunctions might otherwise occur.
(6) Use caution when releasing the brake for the Z-axis (vertical axis).
WARNING
The Z-axis will drop when the brake is released, creating a hazardous
situation.
• Press the emergency stop button and prop up the Z-axis with a support
stand, etc., before releasing the brake.
• Be careful not to let your body get caught between the Z-axis and in-
stallation base, etc., when releasing the brake to perform direct teach-
ing.
(7) Provide safety measures for end effector (gripper, etc.)
WARNING
• End effectors must be designed and manufactured so that they create
no hazards (for example, a workpiece that comes loose) even if power
(electricity, air pressure, etc.) is shut off or a power fluctuation occurs.
• If there is a possible danger that the object gripped by the end effector
may fly off or drop, then provide appropriate safety protection taking
into account the object size, weight, temperature and chemical proper-
ties.
