Safety Guide
Intro-6
No. Operation Precautions
6 Trial Operation ● When working with two or more persons, make it clear who is to be in charge
and communicate well with each other to ensure safety.
● After teaching or programming, carry out trial operation step by step before
switching to automatic operation.
● When trial operation is to be performed inside the safety/protection fence, use
the same work procedure, determined in advance, as teaching operation.
● Be sure to confirm program operation at safe speeds. Otherwise, this may
lead to accidents due to unexpected motion caused by program error, etc.
● Do not touch the terminal block or any of the various setting switches while the
equipment is live. Otherwise, this may lead to electric shock or abnormal
operation.
7 Automatic
Operation
● Check before starting automatic operation or restarting after operation stop
that there is nobody within the safety/protection fence.
● Before starting automatic operation, make sure that all peripheral equipment
is ready for automatic operation and that there is no alarm indication.
● Be sure to start automatic operation from outside the safety/protection fence.
● If the product produces abnormal heat, smoke, odor, or noise, immediately
stop it and turn OFF the power switch. Otherwise, this may lead to fire or
damage to the product.
● When a power failure occurs, turn OFF the power switch. Otherwise, this may
lead to injury or product damage due to unexpected product motion during
recovery from the power failure.
8 Maintenance
and
Inspection
● When working with two or more persons, make it clear who is to be in charge
and communicate well with each other to ensure safety.
● Perform the work outside the safety/protection fence, if possible. If operation
must be performed within the safety/protection fence, prepare "Work
Regulations" and make sure that all the workers acknowledge and
understand them well.
● When work is to be performed inside the safety/protection fence, turn OFF the
power switch as a rule.
● When operation is to be performed inside the safety/protection fence,
operators should have emergency stop switches available at hand so that the
unit can be stopped at any time if abnormalities occur.
● When operation is to be performed inside the safety/protection fence, have a
monitor standing by in addition to the operator(s) so that the unit can be
stopped at any time if abnormalities occur. Also, keep watch on the operation
so that a third party cannot operate the switches carelessly.
● Place a sign indicating "Operating" where it can be seen easily.
● For the grease for the guide or ball screw, use appropriate grease according
to the Instruction Manual for each model.
● Do not perform dielectric strength testing. Otherwise, this may lead to damage
to the product.
