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.
WARNING
Personnel standing next to the robot when it is picking up or placing a cart risk being
injured by an impact.
l
Ensure that areas for picking up and placing carts are clearly marked as operating
hazard zones with visible tape or similar marking and that all personnel are
instructed not to stand in the hazard zone when the robot is operating in it.
WARNING
When the robot is turning while towing a cart, there is a risk of injury to personnel
close to the cart.
l
Instruct personnel to maintain a safe distance from the robot when it is turning
while towing a cart.
WARNING
When the robot is driving while the hook brake is released without being connected
to a cart, the hook can rotate freely. Nearby personnel may be hit by the hook.
l
Never release the hook brakes while the robot is driving without a cart.
