1.2.4.2 CAUTION - Hot parts may cause burns!
Description
During normal operation, many robot parts become hot, especially the drive motors
and gearboxes. Sometimes areas around these parts also become hot. Touching
these may cause burns of various severity.
Because of a higher environment temperature, more surfaces on the robot get hot
and may result in burns.
There is also a risk of fire if flammable materials are put on hot surfaces.
Elimination
The following instructions describe how to avoid the dangers specified above:
InformationAction
Always use your hand, at some distance, to
feel if heat is radiating from the potentially
hot component before actually touching it.
1
Wait until the potentially hot component has
cooled if it is to be removed or handled in any
other way.
2
Do not put anything on hot metal surfaces,
e.g. paper or plastic.
