SAFETY
COLLISIONS
Spot can collide with people or objects, even
with its obstacle detection system enabled.
• People around Spot should keep a safe
distance of at least 2m from the robot while
it is operating on level ground. Do not stand
between Spot and a wall or other fixed object
if this could violate the 2m safety perimeter.
• Do not operate Spot within 2m of delicate
equipment or other property that may be
damaged by the robot.
Operators and anyone
nearby should assume that Spot may move
unexpectedly at any time.
FALLS
Spot may sometimes fall. Falls can damage
Spot or the surrounding environment and injure
operators and bystanders. Keep a safe distance
of at least 2m from Spot while it is operating.
Never stand below Spot on stairways, elevated
platforms, or inclines. For example, if Spot is at
the top of a stairway, stay at least 2m away from
the stairway bottom or any open areas on the
side of the stairway and remain vigilant at all
times to avoid a falling Spot. If Spot falls from an
elevated position, it can cause serious injury or
death.
