3 Safety
3.1 General
• This “Safety” chapter refers to a mechanical component of an indus-
trial robot.
• If the mechanical component is used together with a KUKA robot
controller, the “Safety” chapter of the operating instructions or as-
sembly instructions of the robot controller must be used!
This contains all the information provided in this “Safety” chapter. It
also contains additional safety information relating to the robot con-
troller which must be observed.
• Where this “Safety” chapter uses the term “industrial robot”, this also
refers to the individual mechanical component if applicable.
3.1.1 Disclaimer

component thereof.
Components of the industrial robot:
• Manipulator
• Robot controller

The industrial robot is built using state-of-the-art technology and in accord-
ance with the recognized safety rules. Nevertheless, misuse of the indus-
trial robot may constitute a risk to life and limb or cause damage to the
industrial robot and to other material property.
The industrial robot may only be used in perfect technical condition in ac-
cordance with its intended use and only by safety-conscious persons who
are fully aware of the risks involved in its operation. Use of the industrial
robot is subject to compliance with this document and with the declaration
of incorporation supplied together with the industrial robot. Any functional
disorders, especially those affecting safety, must be rectified immediately.
Safety information
Information about safety may not be construed against the manufacturer.
Even if all safety instructions are followed, this is not a guarantee that the
industrial robot will not cause personal injuries or material damage.
No modifications may be carried out to the industrial robot without the au-
thorization of the manufacturer. Unauthorized modifications will result in
the loss of warranty and liability claims.
Additional components (tools, software, etc.), not supplied by the manufac-
turer, may be integrated into the industrial robot. The user is liable for any
damage these components may cause to the industrial robot or to other
material property.
In addition to the Safety chapter, this document contains further safety in-
structions. These must also be observed.
