4.5 Safety measures
4.5.1 General safety measures
The robot system may only be used in perfect technical condition in accord-
ance with its designated use and only by safety-conscious persons. Operator 
errors can result in personal injury and damage to property.
It is important to be prepared for possible movements of the robot even after 
the robot controller has been switched off and locked. Incorrect installation 
(e.g. overload) or mechanical defects (e.g. brake defect) can cause the robot 
to sag. If work is to be carried out on a switched-off robot, the robot must first 
be moved into a position in which it is unable to move on its own, whether the 
payload is mounted or not. If this is not possible, the robot must be secured by 
appropriate means.
KCP The KCP must be removed from the system if it is not connected, as the 
EMERGENCY STOP button is not functional in such a case. 
If there are several KCPs in a system, it must be ensured that they are not 
mixed up.
No mouse or keyboard may be connected to the robot controller.
