4 Installation/
startup
z Implement safety measures so that the product cannot be started only by turning
on the power. If the product starts suddenly, injury or product damage may result.
z Implement safety measures so that the product will not start upon cancellation of
an emergency stop or recovery of power following a power outage. Failure to do
so may result in injury, equipment damage, etc.
z Put up a sign saying “WORK IN PROGRESS. DO NOT TURN ON POWER,” etc.,
during installation, adjustment, etc. If the power is accidently turned on, electric
shock or injury may result.
z Implement measures to prevent the work part, etc., from dropping due to a power
outage or emergency stop.
z Ensure safety by wearing protective gloves, protective goggles and/or safety
shoes, as necessary.
z Do not insert fingers and objects into openings in the product. Doing so may result
in injury, electric shock, product damage, fire, etc.
z When releasing the brake of a vertically installed actuator, be careful not to pinch
your hand or damage the work part, etc., due to the slider dropping by its dead
weight.
5 Teaching z Whenever possible, perform teaching from outside the safety fences. If teaching
must be performed inside the safety fences, prepare “work rules” and make sure
the operator understands the procedures thoroughly.
z When working inside the safety fences, the operator should carry a handy
emergency stop switch so that the operation can be stopped any time when an
abnormality occurs.
z When working inside the safety fences, appoint a safety watcher in addition to the
operator so that the operation can be stopped any time when an abnormality
occurs. The safety watcher must also make sure the switches are not operated
inadvertently by a third party.
z Put up a sign saying “WORK IN PROGRESS” in a conspicuous location.
z When releasing the brake of a vertically installed actuator, be careful not to pinch
your hand or damage the work part, etc., due to the slider dropping by its dead
weight.
* Safety fences --- Indicate the movement range if safety fences are not provided.
6 Confirmation
operation
z After teaching or programming, carry out step-by-step confirmation operation
before switching to automatic operation.
z When carrying out confirmation operation inside the safety fences, follow the
specified work procedure just like during teaching.
z When confirming the program operation, use the safety speed. Failure to do so
may result in an unexpected movement due to programming errors, etc., causing
injury.
z Do not touch the terminal blocks and various setting switches while the power is
supplied. Touching these parts may result in electric shock or malfunction.
