which results in death or serious injury.
NOTICE
Having the selector switch in the TEACH position limits all Robot and
external axes speeds to 250mm/sec.
CAUTION
• Only the programmer holding the Programming Pendant can be
within the teaching perimeter.
– Other user’s or students are not to be within the teaching
perimeter. Only the programmer holding the Programming
Pendant is allowed in the operating range of the robot.
– Additional safety devices are required for additional user’s or
students to be within the teaching perimeter.
– Review RIA 15.06-2012 requirements for teaching robots.
If someone other than the programmer enters the teaching perimeter
may result in minor to moderate injury.
• Avoid hazards while programming.
If not avoided injury can occur because the robot is free to rotate as
commanded from the Programming Pendant without regard to door
status or light curtain violations.
