Unpacking and Transportation
Transportation and installation of the Manipulator and related equipment should be performed by people who have received installation training provided by Epson and the suppliers. Also, the laws and regulations of the installation country must be followed.
WARNING
- Only qualified personnel should perform sling work and operate a crane or a forklift. When these operations are performed by unqualified personnel, it is extremely hazardous and may result in serious bodily injury to operators and/or severe equipment damage.
- Stabilize the Manipulator with your hands when hoisting it. If you lose balance, the Manipulator may fall which could result in serious bodily injury and/or severe equipment damage.
CAUTION
Using a cart or similar equipment, transport the Manipulator in the same manner as it was delivered.
After removing the fixing bolts securing the Manipulator to the transportation pallet, the Manipulator can fall. Be careful not to get your hands or feet caught in between the Manipulator.
There are no brakes for Arm #1 and 2. Be careful not to get your hands or fingers caught.
The Manipulator should be transported by two or more people, either secured to transporting equipment or carried by placing their hands under the shaded sections (the bottom of Arm #1 and bottom of the base). When holding the bottom of the base by hand, be extremely careful not to get your hands or fingers caught.
Do not hold cable part (a) when transporting the Manipulator. Doing so may damage them.

KEY POINTS
When transporting the Manipulator for a long distance, secure it to the delivery equipment directly so that the Manipulator never falls over. If necessary, pack the Manipulator in the same style as it was delivered.
When transporting the LA10-A while hoisting, follow the following procedures.
Remove the cover of Arm #1 on the base side of the Manipulator.
Pass the hoisting belt through the hole in Arm #1 in the arrow's direction.
Position the Manipulator arm in the stretched position.
Prepare the hoisting belt to secure Arm #2. Using the metal part of the shaded area as a guide, apply the hoisting belt so that it does not shift.
