Observe the following when relocating, storing, and transporting the Manipulators.
The installation shall be made by personnel who has taken robot system training held by us
and suppliers and should conform to all national and local codes.

forklift. When these operations are performed by unauthorized personnel, it is
extremely hazardous and may result in serious bodily injury and/or severe
equipment damage to the robot system.
CAUTION
■
Before relocating the Manipulator, fold the arm and secure it tightly with a wire tie
to prevent hands or fingers from being caught in the Manipulator.
■
When removing the anchor bolts, support the Manipulator to prevent falling.
Removing the anchor bolts without support may result in a fall of the Manipulator,
and then get hands, fingers, or feet caught.
■
To carry the Manipulator, have two or more people to work on it and secure the
Manipulator to the delivery equipment or hold the bottom of Arm #1 and bottom of
the base by hand. When holding the bottom of the base by hand, be very careful
not to get your hands or fingers caught.
When transporting the Manipulator for a long distance, secure it to the delivery
equipment so that the Manipulator cannot fall.
If necessary, pack the Manipulator in the same way as it was delivered.
When the Manipulator is used for a robot system again after long-term storage,
perform a test run to verify that it works properly, and then operate it thoroughly.
Transport and store the Manipulator in the range of Temperature: -20 to +60°C,
Humidity: 10 to 90% (no condensation).
When condensation occurs on the Manipulator during transport or storage, turn
ON the power only after the condensation dries.
