Summary of Warning Information
This manual is provided to help users establish safe conditions for
operating the equipment. Specific considerations and precautions are also
described in the manual, but appear in the form of Dangers, Warnings,
Cautions, and Notice.
It is important that users operate the equipment in accordance with this
instruction manual and any additional information which may be provided
by Yaskawa. Address any questions regarding the safe and proper
operation of the equipment to Customer Support.
Notes for Safe Operation
Read this manual carefully before installation, operation, maintenance, or
inspection of the manipulator.
In this manual, the Notes for Safe Operation are classified as “DANGER”,
“WARNING”, “CAUTION”, or “NOTICE”.
DANGER Indicates an imminently hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
Safety Signs identified by the signal
word DANGER should be used
sparingly and only for those
situations presenting the most
serious hazards.
WARNING Indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, will
result in death or serious injury.
Hazards identified by the signal
word WARNING present a lesser
degree of risk of injury or death than
those identified by the signal word
DANGER.
CAUTION Indicates a hazardous situation,
which if not avoided, could result in
minor or moderate injury. It may
also be used without the safety alert
symbol as an alternative to
“NOTICE”.
NOTICE NOTICE is the preferred signal word
to address practices not related to
personal injury. The safety alert
symbol should not be used with this
signal word. As an alternative to
“NOTICE”, the word “CAUTION”
without the safety alert symbol may
be used to indicate a message not
related to personal injury.

WARNING
• Before operating the manipulator, check that servo power is turned
OFF pressing the emergency stop buttons.
When the servo power is turned OFF, the SERVO ON LED on the
programming pendant is turned OFF.
Injury or damage to machinery may result if the emergency stop circuit
cannot stop the manipulator during an emergency. The manipulator
should not be used if the emergency stop buttons do not function.
Fig. : Emergency Stop Button
• Once the emergency stop button is released, clear the cell of all
items which could interfere with the operation of the manipulator.
Then turn the servo power ON.
Injury may result from unintentional or unexpected manipulator motion.
Fig. : Release of Emergency Stop
TURN
• Observe the following precautions when performing a teaching
operation within the manipulator's operating range:
– Be sure to perform lockout by putting a lockout device on the
safety fence when going into the area enclosed by the safety
fence. In addition, the operator of the teaching operation must
display the sign that the operation is being performed so that no
other person closes the safety fence.
– View the manipulator from the front whenever possible.
– Always follow the predetermined operating procedure.
– Always keep in mind emergency response measures against the
manipulator’s unexpected movement toward a person.
– Ensure a safe place to retreat in case of emergency.
Failure to observe this instruction may cause improper or unintended
movement of the manipulator, which may result in personal injury.
• Confirm that no person is present in the manipulator's operating
range and that the operator is in a safe location before:
– Turning ON the Controller power
– Moving the manipulator by using the programming pendant
– Running the system in the check mode
– Performing automatic operations
Personal injury may result if a person enters the manipulator's
operating range during operation. Immediately press an emergency
