The following safety rules must ALWAYS be obeyed. Failure to do so may result in
exclusion from the laboratory.

2. Always make sure there is no one in the work cell before starting a program.
3. Always give an audible warning before running the program.
4 . Always keep one hand at the emergency stop and observe the robot during
its full operational cycle
5. Always write “
OVRD 20” as the first line in any robot program. This limits the
maximum speed
6. Never load the robot with more than 2 kg. If the arm is operated at full stretch
limit the maximum load to 0.5 kg.
