Safety precautions during robot operation
■
The robot must be operated by a person who has received Robot Training
from YAMAHA or an authorized YAMAHA dealers.
■
During operation of the robot, be sure to stay out of the working area of the
manipulator. Install a safeguard enclosure to keep anyone away from the work-
ing area or provide a gate interlock using an area sensor that triggers emer-
gency stop when anyone enters the working area.
1-4
Safety precautions during maintenance
■
Never disassemble the robot or controller. In cases where you have to replace
or repair parts used in the robot or controller, first consult with us and follow
the user’s we provide.
■
Before beginning maintenance for the robot or controller, be sure to turn off
the power to the controller. Even after turning off the controller, there are some
parts in the controller which are still hot or at a high voltage. Always wait for at
least 5 minutes after the controller is turned off.
1-5
Precautions for motor overload
Since abnormal operation of the motor such as “overload” is detected by software, the
controller parameters must be set correctly to match the motor type used in the robot
which is connected to the controller.
Prior to shipping, the controller parameters are preset to match the robot model to be
used. When connecting to the robot to the controller, check the robot model again. If any
abnormality is found during operation, stop the controller and contact us for corrective
action.
