 All setup work must be carried out, where possible, from outside the safe-
guarded area.
If the setup work has to be carried out inside the safeguarded area, the follow-
ing must be taken into consideration:
In Manual Reduced Velocity mode (T1):
 If it can be avoided, there must be no other persons inside the safeguard-
ed area.
If it is necessary for there to be several persons inside the safeguarded ar-
ea, the following must be observed:
 Each person must have an enabling device.
 All persons must have an unimpeded view of the industrial robot.
 Eye-contact between all persons must be possible at all times.
 The operator must be so positioned that he can see into the danger area
and get out of harm’s way.
In Manual High Velocity mode (T2):
 This mode may only be used if the application requires a test at a velocity
higher than Manual Reduced Velocity.
 Teaching and programming are not permissible in this operating mode.
 Before commencing the test, the operator must ensure that the enabling
devices are operational.
 The operator must be positioned outside the danger zone.
 There must be no other persons inside the safeguarded area. It is the re-
sponsibility of the operator to ensure this.
5.5.5 Automatic mode
Automatic mode is only permissible in compliance with the following safety
measures:
 All safety equipment and safeguards are present and operational.
 There are no persons in the system.
 The defined working procedures are adhered to.
If the manipulator or an external axis (optional) comes to a standstill for no ap-
parent reason, the danger zone must not be entered until an EMERGENCY
STOP has been triggered.
5.5.6 Maintenance and repair
After maintenance and repair work, checks must be carried out to ensure the
required safety level. The valid national or regional work safety regulations
must be observed for this check. The correct functioning of all safety functions
must also be tested.
The purpose of maintenance and repair work is to ensure that the system is
kept operational or, in the event of a fault, to return the system to an operation-
al state. Repair work includes troubleshooting in addition to the actual repair
itself.
The following safety measures must be carried out when working on the indus-
trial robot:
 Carry out work outside the danger zone. If work inside the danger zone is
necessary, the user must define additional safety measures to ensure the
safe protection of personnel.
