5. Safety
New or modified programs must always be tested first in Manual Reduced Ve-
locity mode (T1).
After modifications to the industrial robot, existing programs must always be
tested first in Manual Reduced Velocity mode (T1). This applies to all compo-
nents of the industrial robot and includes modifications to the software and
configuration settings.
5.5.2 Transportation
Manipulator The prescribed transport position of the manipulator must be observed. Trans-
portation must be carried out in accordance with the operating instructions or
assembly instructions of the manipulator.
Robot controller The robot controller must be transported and installed in an upright position.
Avoid vibrations and impacts during transportation in order to prevent damage
to the robot controller.
Transportation must be carried out in accordance with the operating instruc-
tions or assembly instructions of the robot controller.
External axis
(optional)
The prescribed transport position of the external axis (e.g. KUKA linear unit,
turn-tilt table, etc.) must be observed. Transportation must be carried out in ac-
cordance with the operating instructions or assembly instructions of the exter-
nal axis.
5.5.3 Start-up and recommissioning
Before starting up systems and devices for the first time, a check must be car-
ried out to ensure that the systems and devices are complete and operational,
that they can be operated safely and that any damage is detected.
The valid national or regional work safety regulations must be observed for this
check. The correct functioning of all safety circuits must also be tested.
Function test The following tests must be carried out before start-up and recommissioning:
The passwords for logging onto the KUKA System Software as “Expert” and
“Administrator” must be changed before start-up and must only be communi-
cated to authorized personnel.
Danger!
The robot controller is preconfigured for the specific industrial robot. If cables
are interchanged, the manipulator and the external axes (optional) may re-
ceive incorrect data and can thus cause personal injury or material damage.
If a system consists of more than one manipulator, always connect the con-
necting cables to the manipulators and their corresponding robot controllers.
Warning!
If additional components (e.g. cables), that are not part of the scope of supply
of KUKA Roboter GmbH, are integrated into the industrial robot, the user is
responsible for ensuring that these components do not adversely affect or
disable safety functions.
Caution!
If the internal cabinet temperature of the robot controller differs greatly from
the ambient temperature, condensation can form, which may cause damage
to the electrical components. Do not put the robot controller into operation un-
til the internal temperature of the cabinet has adjusted to the ambient temper-
ature.
