z
If the product’s protective device (alarm) has actuated, immediately turn off the power. Continuing to
use the product may result in injury or product damage due to the malfunctioning product. After turning
off the power, identify and remove the cause of problem, and then reconnect the power.
z
Do not step on the product, use it as a footstool or place any object on it. You may accidentally slip or
the product may tip over or drop, resulting in injury. The product may also sustain damage, which may
in turn lead to malfunction, runaway machine, etc.
[Maintenance, Inspection, Repair]
z
When performing maintenance, inspection, servicing, replacement or other operation relating to the
product, always cut off the power supply completely before commencing work. Also heed the following
precautions:
1. Put up a sign saying “WORK IN PROGRESS. DO NOT TURN ON POWER” or the like, so as to
prevent a third person from inadvertently turning on the power while you are working.
2. If you are working together with other operator or operators on maintenance or inspection, always
exchange verbal cues before turning on/off the power or moving any axis to confirm safety.
[Disposal]
z
Do not throw the product into fire. Doing so may cause the product to burst or generate toxic gases.
Caution
[Installation]
z
Do not use the product in an atmosphere filled with organic solvent, hydraulic oil containing phosphate
ester, etc. Doing so may cause the product to quickly lose its function or suffer rapid performance
deterioration or shortening of its life.
z
Do not use the product in an atmosphere of corrosive gases (such as sulfuric acid and hydrochloric
acid). Doing so may cause the structural strength of the product to drop due to rusting.
z
If the product must be used in any of the following locations, provide sufficient shielding measures. If
not, the product may malfunction.
1. Where large current or high magnetic field generates
2. Where welding is performed or arc discharge occurs
3. Where noise generates due to electrostatic, etc.
4. Where there is a risk of exposure to radiation
z
Do not install the product in a location subject to significant vibration or impact (4.9 m/s
2
or greater). If
significant vibration or impact is applied, the product may malfunction.
z
Provide an emergency stop device in a convenient position that can be readily accessed to promptly
actuate an emergency stop should a dangerous situation occur during operation. Failure to do so may
result in injury.
z
Secure maintenance space when installing the product. If the required space is not secured, daily
inspection and maintenance cannot be performed, which may lead to unnecessary downtime or product
damage.
z
When transporting or installing the product, securely support it using a lift or other supporting equipment
or engage multiple operators to work together. Exercise due caution to avoid accidents.
z
Do not hold any moving part or cable when installing the product. Doing so may result in injury.
z
Always use IAI’s genuine cable for connection between the actuator and controller. Also use IAI’s
genuine products for all components of your system, such as the actuator, controller and teaching
pendant.
z
When installing or adjusting the product, put up a sign saying “WORK IN PROGRESS. DO NOT TURN
ON POWER” or the like, so as to prevent a third person from inadvertently turning on the power. If the
power is supplied inadvertently while you are working, you may be electrocuted or injured due to
sudden movement of the actuator.
[Operation]
z
Turn on the power to individual equipment one by one, starting from the equipment at the highest level
in the system hierarchy. Failure to do so may cause the product to start suddenly, resulting in injury or
product damage.
