1-2.Hazardous Areas
■ Composition and Charging areas of the robot
The robot consists of the driving box, the signal interlock box and the control box。
DANGER!
It is prohibited to open the front cover of the robot when the machine is on or running. The
exposed high-voltage connecting terminal and charging part are causes of electric shock. If the
front cover needs to be opened for maintenance and the mechanical part inside it is to be touched,
the power switch must be turned off first (OFF)。
Particularly for the places marked with“ ”,the circuit may have remaining
voltage when the power switch is on or even after the power is turned off for several minutes (ten
minutes or more). Do not touch them。

3-1.Principal Actions of the Robot
The principal actions of the robot can be classified into three types: operation of home position return,
manual operation and automatic operation。
■Operation of home position return
The robot returns to the home position。 Home Location
■Manual operation
In manual operation state, the actions are executed one by one according to the setting in the mode or
teaching (manual operation, step feed mode), and the axis motion performed regardless of setting (free
operation)。
