Safety / warnings
Follow basic safety rules when working with the Jaco, OLED display, and Lift Arm to avoid injury or
damage to the equipment.
Jaco and OLED display considerations
It is not recommended to use the robot under heavy rain or snow.
Be careful not to hit the robot on a doorframe. The impact could damage the inner components
or break the frame of the robot, which would create an electrical shock hazard. Always ensure there
is sufficient space for the robot to go through the door; also ensure the door cannot close on the
robot.
Never use the Home / Retract function when carrying liquid. The home position is preset and
the wrist may rotate and drop the liquid.
Do not manipulate cutting, very sharp or any dangerous tools or objects with the robot.
When the power is turned off, the robot will fall down and may cause damage to itself,
depending on its position at the time of disconnection. Be sure to support its wrist before turning
the power off.
Do not force the fingers beyond their maximal opening. This could damage some internal
components.
Do not immerse any part of the robot under water or snow.
When lifting weight near the maximum load and reach, and you receive a warning, put down
the object in the gripper, bring the robot back to the Home or Retract position and wait until the
warning goes away before using it again.
The wheelchair mode (wheelchair / seat motorization / arm) must never be switched while
operating the robot. There is a risk of user contact with the moving robot associated with switching
the mode during operation.
Do not block the robot movement when it is performing a Retract position trajectory.
Any adjustment (mechanical, electrical or programming) done to a wheelchair already
equipped with a robotic arm may have a critical impact on the robot functionality or safety. Always
instruct the personnel or company that will be responsible for servicing your wheelchair to contact
the local Kinova representative before doing any changes.
When reinstalling Jaco at home, verify the retract position is still properly adjusted; that is,
make sure the robot gripper, and elbow if possible, is resting on some fixed part of the wheelchair,
so that the motor power is used minimally to maintain this position. Contact Kinova Support if the
retract position needs to be adjusted.
