To avoid personal injury, take the following precautions when working close to the robot:
● The robot should be supervised during its operation.
● Always keep clean the four robot-safety floor sensors, and check frequently that they are working
correctly.
● To reduce the risk of the robot falling onto someone from a height, ensure that the working area
meets all the requirements of local safety laws according to the robot’s size, weight, and operation.
Get the approval of your EHS site specialist before starting work.
HP always recommends the use of safety nets or other protective barriers.
● To reduce the risk of the robot colliding with people, try to remove people from the working area. If
they need to be there, remind them of the risk.
● Although the usual direction of operation of the robot is forward, please also be aware of the robot’s
backward movements and rotations when working in close proximity to it to avoid any potential
collisions with the robot.
● Use personal protective equipment (PPE) as a preventive measure in case the robot runs into you
during operation.
● Keep your clothing and all parts of your body away from the robot’s moving parts.
● Avoid wearing necklaces, bracelets, and other hanging objects.
● If your hair is long, try to secure it so that it will not fall into the robot.
● Take care that sleeves or gloves do not get caught in the robot’s moving parts.
● Do not touch gears or moving parts during operation or maintenance. Press the disconnection
button and remove the battery before performing maintenance.
● Do not operate the robot with covers or doors open or wrongly assembled.
● Do not park the robot on a slope of more than 4.4% inclination, to avoid it sliding down.
● Handle the robot with care to avoid dropping it. If you drop it, call your service representative to
check it for damage that may affect your safety.
