1.5 General Warnings and Cautions
13. Collisions can release high levels of kinetic energy, which are
significantly higher at high speeds and with high payloads.

)
14. Combining different machines can increase hazards or create
new hazards. Always make an overall risk assessment for
the complete installation. Depending on the assessed risk,
different levels of functional safety can apply; as such, when
different safety and emergency stop performance levels are
needed, always choose the highest performance level. Al-
ways read and understand the manuals for all equipment
used in the installation.
15. Never modify the robot. A modification might create hazards
that are unforeseen by the integrator. All authorized reassem-
bling shall be done according to the newest version of all rel-
evant service manuals.
16. If the robot is purchased with an extra module (e.g. eu-
romap67 interface) then look up that module in the respective
manual.
WARNING:
1. The robot and its controller box generate heat during opera-
tion. Do not handle or touch the robot while in operation or
immediately after operation as prolonged contact can cause
discomfort. To cool the robot down, power off the robot and
wait one hour.
2. Never stick fingers behind the internal cover of the controller
box.
CAUTION:
1. When the robot is combined, or working, with machines ca-
pable of damaging the robot, it is highly recommended to test
all functions and the robot program separately. It is also rec-
ommended to test the robot program using temporary way-
points outside the workspace of other machines.
2. Do not expose the robot to permanent magnetic fields. Very
strong magnetic fields can damage the robot.
