NOTICE
The robot cannot reliably detect forklift forks or empty pallets. The robot may drive
into forks or pallets causing damage to the robot's load, the robot, or equipment.
l
Avoid leaving empty forklifts in the robot's operating environment.
l
Inform personnel that the robot will not detect forklift forks or empty pallets.
l
Inform personnel that the safety laser scanners are the only safety-rated sensors,
but are limited to the scanner detection plane and are not intended for detecting
forks and pallets. At any other height, only the 3D cameras and proximity sensors
can potentially detect obstacles.
l
Any modifications to the camera filter settings or the Obstacle clearing settings
may affect how well the robot can detect obstacles in front of the robot, above or
below the safety laser scanner detection plane. Test and evaluate the robot’s
performance after applying any changes to ensure the robot performs as
intended.
CAUTION
Robot malfunctions can cause an electrical fire, causing damage and injury to
equipment and personnel.
l
Personnel operating near the robot must be informed on how to use an ABC fire
extinguisher to put out an electrical fire should the robot malfunction and catch on
fire.
CAUTION
Risk of trapping or injury to personnel if robots malfunction or if personnel enter
operating hazard zones.
l
Personnel operating near the robot must be informed on how to engage the
robot's Emergency stop function in emergency situations.
l
Ensure that all personnel are instructed to stay clear of operating hazard zones
when the robot is in the zone.
