1. Safety Maintenance
Please read this chapter, this manual, and other relevant manuals carefully to understand
safe maintenance procedures before performing any maintenance.
Only authorized personnel who have taken safety training should be allowed to
perform the robot maintenance.
Safety training is the program for industrial robot operators to follow the laws and
regulations of each nation.
The personnel who have taken safety training acquire knowledge of industrial
robots (operations, teaching, etc.), inspections, and related rules/regulations.
The personnel who have completed the robot system-training and maintenance-
training held by the manufacturer, dealer, or locally-incorporated company are
allowed to perform maintenance.

remove any parts unless otherwise instructed by this manual. Follow the
maintenance procedure stri

improper
maintenance may cause not only malfunction of the robot system but
serious safety problems.
