s-2
1.2 PRECAUTIONS FOR USE

Before you start to install, operate, or maintain the machine, read the safety
precautions described in this section carefully. Failing to follow any of these safety
precautions herein or other cautions provided in the OPERATOR'S MANUAL may
lead to death or injury.
DANGER
You could get caught in the machine, possibly leading to injury. Do

not put your body, hand, or foot close to any movable parts.
1 When running the machine with the front door kept open, be careful to prevent
any portion of your body from touching the movable parts, such as the table.
Otherwise, you may get caught, possibly leading to injury.
2 Do not put your whole body into the machine. If you do so, it is difficult for others
to notice that you are working on the machine. Therefore, they may fail to
recognize you working inside the machine and may start the machine.
3 Do not adjust the coolant nozzle during operation. Doing so may cause injury.
4 The operator is not allowed to open the front door even if the power is OFF.
Opening the front door disables safety devices, possibly leading to injury.
5 If you are an operator and need to open the front door while the power is OFF,
ask a maintenance engineer. Opening the front door with no sufficient
knowledge may lead to injury because of an unexpected behavior of the
machine.
6 Before you open the front door, make sure that the Z-axis (spindle head) will not
move down. In rare cases, the Z-axis brake gets out of order, thus letting the
Z-axis move down. Even after you have opened the front door, be aware that the
Z-axis may move down. If you have to work underneath the Z-axis, pop it up by
inserting a piece of wood between the Z-axis and table beforehand to prevent it
from moving down in case the brake should get out of order.
7 Pay attention not to get your head or hand caught in the automatic door
(optional). If the machine has the optional automatic door mechanism, the front
door can be automatically opened and closed in step with programs. Be careful
not to get caught in the door during work.
8 When removing the Z-axis motor, be careful not to let the Z-axis (spindle head)
move down. Since the Z-axis brake is in the motor, removing the motor allows
the Z-axis to move down, you may get caught, possibly leading to injury. When
removing the motor, fix the table and Z-axis with packing materials.
9 Do not perform automatic operation with the coupling bolts for the Z-axis loose.
Otherwise, the ball screw may break, which may cause the spindle head to go
down in the worst case.
s-3
DANGER
You could get caught in rotating portions, possibly leading to

injury. Do not put your body, hand, or foot close to any rotating
portions.
1 When the power is ON, do not use a cross-slot screwdriver to open the front
door. Doing so enables you to enter the machining area even when the tool is
rotating, possibly leading to injury. When the power is ON, use the [Door
Open/Close] button to open or close the front door.
2 One or two servo motors can be controlled as the fourth and/or fifth axes
(additional axes). The additional axis must be installed on the table. Otherwise, it
is impossible for the fixed cover or front door to protect the operator from the
motion of the additional axis, possibly leading to injury.
3 To avoid accidents, such as getting caught in the machine, always wear safe
clothing as stated below when working.
 Wear a cap. Long hair should be tucked into the cap as it can get caught in
the machine or hinder vision.
 Wear safety shoes.
 Wear protective glasses.
 Button up the sleeves of outer clothes.
 Do not wear necklaces, bracelets, or the like.
 Do not wear scarves, mufflers, or the like.
4 Before opening the front door with the power switched OFF, make sure that the
spindle is not rotating. When the spindle is rotating, switching OFF the power
prevents the spindle from stopping in a controlled manner, thus letting the
spindle keep rotating under its own inertia; chips may fly out or you might
accidentally touch the rotating spindle leading to injury.
s-4
DANGER
An explosion or fire could occur. Watch for explosions and fires when
machining a workpiece made of combustible metal.
1 When machining a combustible metal, use a coolant appropriate for machining

combustible metals.
If fire breaks out during machining of a combustible metal, in particular, using a
water-soluble coolant, the water reacts with the combustible metal, possibly
leading to explosive combustion due to hydrogen gas or vapor explosion.
2 Do not machine any combustible metal such as magnesium with a machine
equipped with an automatic fire-extinguisher for general fires. If the automatic
fire-extinguisher operates, the agent in the extinguisher reacts with the
combustible metal, possibly leading to explosive combustion due to hydrogen
gas or vapor explosion.
3 A ROBODRILL equipped with an automatic fire-extinguisher can only be used to
machine fire-extinguishable materials with the extinguisher. If the ROBODRILL is
used to machine other materials, the extinguisher cannot be expected to
extinguish fire, possibly leading to fire or explosion due to chemical reactions.
The fire-extinguishable materials of each type of automatic fire-extinguisher are
listed below.
[Materials allowed on a machine with an automatic fire-extinguisher for general
fires]
 Resins  Formed plastics  Wood  Fibers  Water-soluble coolants
(cutting fluids)  Water-insoluble combustible liquids (hazardous materials
almost insoluble in water such as kerosene, class 3 petroleum (with an
inflammation point of 70 to 200 °C), class 4 petroleum (with an inflammation
point of 200 to 250 °C), fire-resistant coolants (cutting fluids) (with an
inflammation point of 250 °C or higher), machine oils, and lubricants)
[Materials allowed on a machine with an automatic fire-extinguisher for
combustible metal fires]
 Hazardous substances belonging to the second category (flammable solids)
and third category (spontaneously flammable substances and substances which
emit flammable gases when contacting with water) in the hazardous substance
categories of the Fire Defense Law
(for all combustible metals including magnesium, aluminum, and titanium, use an
automatic fire-extinguisher for combustible metal fires).
 Resins  Formed plastics  Wood  Fibers  Water-soluble coolants
(cutting fluids)  Water-insoluble combustible liquids (hazardous materials
almost insoluble in water such as kerosene, class 3 petroleum (with an
inflammation point of 70 to 200 °C), class 4 petroleum (with an inflammation
point of 200 to 250 °C), fire-resistant coolants (cutting fluids) (with an
inflammation point of 250 °C or higher), machine oils, and lubricants) ・
Water-soluble combustible liquids (such as alcohol)
4 When using a mist collector or dust chamber together with a machine tool that
machines combustible metals, the mist collector or dust chamber must be
specific to combustible metals. Otherwise, a fire or explosion may occur within
the mist collector or dust chamber.
s-5
DANGER
An explosion or fire could occur. Watch for explosions and fires when
machining a workpiece made of combustible metal.
5 Do not use any ROBODRILL equipped with an automatic fire-extinguisher if the

fire-extinguishing agent container is in rust, has flaw or is damaged, or the
container cap is loose. The fire-extinguisher may burst.
6 Do not install any automatic fire-extinguisher at any location subject to high
temperatures and high humidity.
7 On automatic fire-extinguishers, do not use any fire-extinguishing agent
containers that were produced five or more years ago. Do not improperly discard
or leave any fire-extinguishing agent containers or pressurized containers
unattained. It is likely that they may burst.
8 When the ROBODRILL is used to machine carbon- or graphite-made
workpieces, it is likely that, if fine carbon or graphite powder resulting from
machining gets dry, it may lead to dust explosion or rapid combustion. Be very
careful when processing or handling such powder.
9 Use specified batteries and replace them in the correct way. If a battery is
installed in a wrong way, it can explode, leading to injury.
10 After operation of the automatic fire-extinguisher for combustible metal fires, do
not apply water or cutting liquid onto the chips or the ejected fire-extinguishing
agent. Applying water or cutting liquid onto chips or the ejected fire-extinguishing
agent to cool it down or wash it away may cause a reaction with the combustible
metal leading to an explosion.
s-6
WARNING
Chips, coolant, and broken tools may fly out. Be careful not to get
hit by any flying objects on your body or eyes.
1 Before you start to switch ON the air blower with the front door kept open, wear
protective glasses. Otherwise, chips may get into your eyes, possibly leading to
loss of vision.
2 If the polycarbonate of the front or side window is damaged, immediately replace
the polycarbonate or door. When a lattice type window is installed, if the ABS
sheet, which protects the polycarbonate, is damaged, immediately replace the
door. Otherwise, objects flying from the inside of the machine can crash through
the window, possibly leading to injury.
3 A high-speed spindle mounted on the ROBODRILL must meet the following
requirements. Otherwise, safety devices, such as the interlock, may fail to
operate, possibly leading to injury.
 Register the number of the tool to be mounted in the parameter and confirm
that the parameter setting matches the location where the high-speed spindle
holder is mounted. If the parameter setting differs from the mounted location,
safety measures during operation or work by the ROBODRILL become
insufficient, possibly leading to injury.
 To operate the machine with the front door (safety door) of the ROBODRILL
kept open, make sure that the high-speed spindle motor does not rotate. If
the front door is opened with the high-speed spindle motor rotating, injury
may occur. Be sure to use the high-speed spindle control amplifier from
YUKIWA SEIKO INC. (for the FANUC ROBODRILL). Otherwise, safety is not
ensured.
 Prepare a circuit that shuts down the power between the motor and control
unit when the door of the machine is opened.
 Use a high-speed spindle having a speed detector.
4 The operator is not allowed to remove any fixed cover. Some portions inside the
fixed covers are rotating or moving at high-speed. Removing any fixed cover has
the following risks.
 You may accidentally touch portions rotating or moving at high-speed.
 A broken tool or workpiece chips may fly out.
 Chips may fly out.
 Coolant may splatter from the machine.
 Noise may leak out.
5 Before switching on the power and operating the machine during or after
maintenance work, make sure that no tool or the like is left in the machine.
Otherwise, when the machine runs, any tool or the like may get caught in the
machine or the machine may strike the tool or the like toward people around the
machine.
s-7
WARNING
Chips, coolant, and broken tools may fly out. Be careful not to get
hit by any flying objects on your body or eyes.
6 When replacing the filter regulator and oil mist filter mantle (element)
a) Before starting auto drain maintenance, turn OFF the main circuit breaker.
Otherwise, you may get injured due to an unpredictable motion.
b) Before removing the bowl, stop the supply of compressed air to remove any
residual pressure and make sure that there is no pressure inside the bowl. If
there remains compressed air, the bowl can be blown off, resulting in human
injury or death.
c) Do not remove the bowl guard. If the bowl is damaged, broken pieces can
scatter, resulting in human injury or death.
s-8
WARNING
There is a risk of an electrical shock. Do not touch any portion
through which current flows or splash liquid onto that portion.
1 When installing the machine, keep the main circuit breaker (outside the control
unit cabinet) in its off position.
2 When making electrical adjustments with a cover removed, use a tool with
sufficient electrical protection (for example, a screwdriver made of plastic).
Otherwise, you may receive an electrical shock.
3 If a power or connection cable gets damaged, immediately stop using the
machine. Otherwise, you may receive an electrical shock, or fire may occur. Do
not start using the machine until a maintenance engineer replaces the damaged
cable.
4 Do not switch ON the power for the machine with any cable detached.
5 Before opening the control unit cabinet door, for example, to replace fuses or
batteries, be sure to switch OFF the power with the main circuit breaker.
6 Before connecting the power cable, turn OFF the switchboard breaker.
7 Keep in mind that setting the control unit cabinet door circuit breaker to its OFF
position does not remove the power from its primary side. Also keep in mind that,
even if the circuit breaker is in its OFF position, there is a risk of an electrical
shock on any component connected to the primary side of the circuit breaker,
including the following:
 External power transformer connected to the primary side of the circuit
breaker
 Nonstandard peripheral equipment connected to the primary side of the
circuit breaker
 Automatic fire-extinguisher connected to the primary side of the circuit
breaker
8 There may remain a voltage on some portions in the control unit cabinet even
after the main circuit breaker is set to its OFF position, possibly leading to an
electrical shock. Do not touch any portion in the control unit cabinet unless you
have sufficient knowledge about electricity.
There may remain a voltage also on each motor and their power lines. Before
starting maintenance work on these parts, wait for at least 20 minutes after the
power has been shut OFF.
9 Do not touch the inside of the control unit cabinet with a wet hand. Otherwise,
you may receive an electrical shock.
10 Do not splash liquid onto the operator's panel or control unit cabinet. Otherwise,
you may receive an electrical shock.
11 Avoid using any coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil) that can unmake
polycarbonate, nitrile rubber (NBR), hydrogenated nitrile rubber (HNBR),
fluorocarbon rubber, nylon, acrylate resin, and ABS resins. Dilution water rich
with residual chlorine can unmake these substances. As the machine uses these
substances as sealant, such sealant properties may be lost, possibly leading to
an electrical shock due to fault current or a burn due to lack of grease resulting
from a spill.
s-9
WARNING
There is a risk of an electrical shock. Do not touch any portion
through which current flows or splash liquid onto that portion.
12 The operator is not allowed to open the control unit cabinet door. Some portions
in the cabinet have high voltage, having a risk of an electrical shock. If the
operator has to switch ON the power, use the main circuit breaker (outside the
control unit cabinet) or the power switch (on the operator's panel).
13 Before removing the cover of the automatic fire-extinguisher control box, be sure
to turn OFF the circuit breaker of the automatic fire-extinguisher. If you remove
the cover with the power to the automatic fire-extinguisher kept ON, you may
receive an electrical shock. Keep in mind that turning OFF the circuit breaker of
the ROBODRILL does not remove the power from the automatic
fire-extinguisher.
14 Do not touch the controller terminals inside the automatic fire-extinguisher panel.
It is likely that the fire-extinguisher power may be ON even if the ROBODRILL
circuit breaker is in its OFF position. Before touching the controller terminals,
make sure that the automatic fire-extinguisher power is OFF. Otherwise, you
may receive an electrical shock.
15 When replacing maintenance parts (except the battery for Absolute Pulsecoder
explained in "Subsection 2.6.1.1 Absolute Pulsecoder battery replacement" in
"Part V, MAINTENANCE" in the OPERATOR'S MANUAL (Detailed Version) or
"Subsection 4.6.1.1 Absolute Pulsecoder battery replacement" in the
MAINTENANCE MANUAL (Basic Version)), be sure to keep the control unit
cabinet door circuit breaker set to its OFF position. Otherwise, the replaced parts
may be damaged, or you may receive an electrical shock.
16 Provide sufficient space around the cable carrier. If sufficient space is not
allowed between the cable carrier and the ceiling, walls, beams, or other
installations (for example, a non-FANUC material prepared by the customer,
such as a ceiling cover) of a building in which the machine is installed, a broken
power cable in the cable carrier has a higher risk of a fire or electrical shock.
17 When assembling the Z-axis motor to the machine, keep the power for the
machine main body switched OFF. Otherwise, you may be injured or receive an
electrical shock unexpectedly.
18 After maintenance work, make sure that all components, including screws, that
were removed for maintenance purposes are back in place. Otherwise, safety
devices may fail to function, or you may get injured due to a malfunction or an
electrical shock.
19 The person in charge of routine maintenance and preventive maintenance shall
not be engaged in replacement of the CNC memory backup battery. Only the
maintenance engineer is allowed to replace such batteries. Work by any person
with no sufficient knowledge may disable safety devices from working, possibly
resulting in an unexpected behavior of the machine that may cause injury or an
electrical shock.
s-10
WARNING
Other Dangers
1 Do not get close to the machine if you are using a pacemaker. Otherwise, the
pacemaker may be adversely affected.
2 Do not touch the following portions of the machine during operation and for a
while after operation because they may be very hot. The temperature of these
portions may become very high with a risk of burn injury. Use protective
equipment, such as heat-resistant gloves, if you cannot avoid touching them.
 X-, Y-, Z-, and additional axis servo motors
 Spindle motor
 Coolant motor
3 Do not touch the following portions of the machine when the power is ON and for
a while after the power is switched OFF because they may be very hot. The
temperature of these portions may become very high with a risk of burn injury.
Use protective equipment, such as heat-resistant gloves, if you cannot avoid
touching them.
 Power line
 Heat generating/releasing portions (such as transformers and heat sink fins)
in the control unit cabinet
4 Coolants and lubricants (such as grease and oil) are harmful. Take the following
precautions. For additional precautions and measures to be taken if they have
come in contact with the human body or been inhaled, follow the instructions
stated on the package of the products or those from the respective
manufacturers, such as SDS.
 Do not inhale vapor or mist of any of these substances.
 Do not expose the skin (especially, cuts) directly to any of these substances
more than necessary.
 Wear protective glasses to protect the eyes from these substances.
 Do not drink any of these substances.
5 Do not use any rotten coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil) as it is quite
harmful. As for how you can tell that a coolant or lubricant is rotten, contact its
manufacturer. Store or dispose of such coolant or lubricant according to the
instructions from the manufacturer.
6 Do not detach the coolant hose during operation. The toxic coolant may spout
out and splash onto the human body. Before detaching the coolant hose, switch
OFF the power and make sure that the pump is at rest.
7 To use the built-in Ethernet function for the first time, set up an IP address and
other data carefully and perform communication tests sufficiently after consulting
with your network administrator. Be very careful because specifying the IP
address and other data incorrectly can have an adverse effect, such as a
communication failure, to the entire network and can also cause other machines
to malfunction.
8 Before starting to use the machine, be sure to perform grounding to prevent
radio disturbance and electrical leakage. For grounding conditions, see "Chapter
1, INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS" in the "Part II, INSTALLATION" in the
OPERATOR'S MANUAL (Detailed Version).
s-11
WARNING
Other Dangers
9 Do not change any parameter unless you have sufficient knowledge. Changing a
parameter may disable the interlock, leading to a higher risk of injury. After
changing any parameter, make sure that the interlock functions properly.
10 To lift the machine, use a crane and rope or cable with a load capacity not less
than the mass of the ROBODRILL main body to be lifted. Listed below are the
mass of the main body of each ROBODRILL model. The value enclosed in
parentheses is the total mass including all options.
 -D14/21MiB5 2000kg (2300kg)
 -D14/21LiB5 2100kg (2400kg)
  -D14/21SiB5 1950kg (2200kg)
When lifting the machine, make sure that it stays in balance.
11 Do not use any coolant with a low inflammation point (such as class 2 petroleum,
with an inflammation point of below 70 °C). Otherwise, a fire may occur. Class 3
petroleum (with an inflammation point of 70 to 200 °C), class 4 petroleum (with
an inflammation point of 200 to 250 °C), and burn-resistant coolants (with an
inflammation point of 250 °C or higher) can also catch fire. When using these
liquids, exercise care on the way and method of using them, for example, by
suppressing generation of oily smoke.
12 Do not get burnable or flammable material (such as thinner, gasoline, paper,
wood chip, cloth, fiber, or spray) close to the machine (including the power and
connection cables) or leave it near the machine. Otherwise, heat or sparks
generated in cutting may let it catch fire.
13 During machining using a coolant, be careful to supply a sufficient amount of
coolant properly. If a coolant is not supplied properly, sparks, frictional heat, and
others may be generated depending on the cutting condition, possibly letting
chips of a combustible workpiece or the coolant catch fire. Clean the chip tray
and filter in the coolant tank so that a sufficient amount of coolant is supplied
properly and remove any clogging in the filter. If the amount of the coolant in the
coolant tank is insufficient, replenish the coolant in the tank immediately.
Periodically check that the coolant pump runs normally.
14 Always maintain a sufficient amount of coolant for machining. If there is no
sufficient coolant, a resultant temperature rise may cause a fire or damage to the
tool and workpiece.
15 When using a mist collector or dust chamber together with the ROBODRILL with
an automatic fire-extinguisher, be sure to attach a fire prevention dumper to the
duct section. Otherwise, fire spark may enter such parts, causing fire to spread
in case of a fire.
16 Watch for fires when handling flammable workpieces.
17 Watch for fires when using a water-insoluble coolant.
18 Use the machine with appropriate tools and under appropriate cutting conditions.
Cutting under an unreasonable cutting condition or with a worn tool may lead to
fire because of heat generated during cutting. It can also break the tool and
cause sparks, which may let chips and the water-insoluble coolant catch fire.
Use appropriate tools and appropriate cutting conditions while referencing
materials supplied by tool manufacturers.
s-12
WARNING
Other Dangers
19 If a tool breaks, stop cutting immediately. Otherwise, any tool chip left in the
workpiece may grind against the rest of the tool on the Z-axis (spindle head),
causing sparks, which may let chips and the water-insoluble coolant catch fire.
20 Do not use the machine under any cutting condition that may cause sparks.
Otherwise, a fire may break out. Sufficiently check the program and settings
beforehand and make sure that the tool will not be overloaded or interfere with
jigs.
21 Sweep away chips. A pileup of chips in the machine can increase the risk of a
fire. Periodically sweep inside the machine to avoid a pileup of chips.
22 Keep mist of oil or dust from stirring up around the machine. Otherwise, sparks
may let it catch fire.
23 When machining a combustible workpiece or using a water-insoluble coolant,
always monitor the machine status. The automatic fire-extinguisher is designed
for temporary use for the initial stage of fire. Always monitor the machine status
so that an appropriate action can be taken immediately in case fire should break
out.
24 Machining a combustible metal without using any coolant may generate sparks,
frictional heat, and others depending on the cutting condition or due to a worn
tool, having a high risk of letting chips catch fire.
25 Rig a fire-extinguisher near the machine in case of fires. It is also recommended
to equip the machine with an automatic fire-extinguisher.
26 Periodically clean the piping and wiring (sensors and nozzle in particular) in the
automatic fire-extinguisher. In particular, chips and cutting fluid adhered to the
sensors and nozzle can prevent detection of a fire and emission of
fire-extinguishing agent.
27 We recommend you to install a ceiling cover. In case fire should break out, the
ceiling cover may be able to prevent or retard the spread of fire to the building, to
let the fire die down because of a reduction in the amount of oxygen within the
splash guard, and to enhance the effect of the automatic fire-extinguisher.
28 Perform inspections and maintenance periodically. Be sure to perform inspection
of items described in the OPERATOR’S MANUAL (Detailed Version) or
MAINTENANCE MANUAL (Basic Version). Otherwise, any defect in the machine
may lead to death, injury, or damage to the machine.
29 When exchanging maintenance parts, follow the applicable descriptions in this

breaker (outside the control unit cabinet) is in its OFF position for safety
purposes. In addition, stop supplying air to the machine.
40 Clean chips from the splash guard to prevent large amounts of chips from
accumulating. If fire occurs when large amounts of chips are accumulated, it may
become impossible to distinguish the fire completely with the automatic
fire-extinguisher.
41 After operation of the automatic fire-extinguisher, leave the machine untouched
without removing ejected fire-extinguishing agent until chips and the machine
have completely cooled down. You may get burned if you touch hot burned
chips. Remove the burned chips and fire-extinguishing agent once they have
completely cooled down (you do not feel heat when you place your hands over
the fire-extinguishing agent).
s-14
WARNING
Other Dangers
42 When doing cleanup work after operation of the automatic fire-extinguisher, be
sure to wear protective equipment such as protective gloves, goggles, and a
mask. Otherwise, during the cleanup work after fire extinction, there is a risk that
you may burn yourself if you carelessly touch hot chips or parts, and there is
also a risk for you to be injured if fire-extinguishing agent or chips enter your
eyes or mouth.
[First-aid actions against fire-extinguishing agent]
Take the actions listed below, immediately contact a doctor, and follow the
doctor's directions.
When fire-extinguishing agent was inhaled
 Lie quietly in an environment where air is clean.
 Wash the nasal cavity with lukewarm water and gargle the throat.

46 When you hear noise from the spindle, the bearing of the spindle may be
damaged. If you continue to use the machine with a damaged bearing, the
temperature of the spindle may become abnormally high, possibly leading to fire
caused by overheated parts. Especially when the alarm SP9002 "EX
DEVIATION SPEED" occurs along with the noise, immediately stop using the
machine.
s-15
CAUTION
1 Before you use coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil), obtain the latest
MSDS provided by the manufacturer and make sure to thoroughly read and
understand the product properties and precautions. Handling coolant or lubricant
without following such precautions or disposal information may lead to
circumstances that will adversely affect the human body or environment.
2 If a coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil) contacts your hand, wipe it off
immediately. Otherwise, it makes the hand very slippery, making it difficult to
handle workpieces or operate the equipment; possibly leading to injury and
damage to the workpieces.
3 The table can hold up to 300 kg including jigs and workpieces. Be careful not to
exceed this maximum loading weight (200 kg for the -D14SiB5 and
-D21SiB5 ). If it is exceeded, the table may get damaged, possibly leading to
injury and damage to the workpiece and jig.
4 Be careful when handling workpieces, no matter whether they are yet to be
machined or have already been machined, because they have sharp edges and
burrs. Otherwise, you may get injured. Wear protective equipment such as
gloves.
5 When using or exchanging tools, be careful not to get injured with their sharp
edge. When handling tools, wear protective equipment such as gloves.
6 When handling chips, be careful not to get injured. Wear protective equipment
such as gloves.
7 When disposing of tools, follow all regulations applicable to handling of
dangerous articles. Unconsidered disposal may lead to injury to others who
touch the wastes.
8 If you want to use an coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil) that is not
recommended by FANUC, check the instructions from its manufacturer and use
it by exercising care sufficiently on its use conditions and method according to
the instructions. Otherwise, unrecommended coolants and lubricants can
adversely affect human bodies, the machine, and environment. Some types of
coolant or lubricant and some of their combinations lead to poor lubrication or
sludge development on the LM guide or ball screw, causing possible endurance
degradation. Before you start to use a coolant, check it carefully with its
manufacturer.
9 If a coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil) spills on the floor, wipe it off
immediately. Otherwise, the floor becomes very slippery, possibly leading to the
risk of fall and injury.
10 Periodically clean the machine so that chips will not block the coolant outlet or
chip tray. Coolant leakage can make the floor slippery, possibly leading to the
risk of fall and injury.
11 As for storage of coolants and lubricants (such as grease and oil), follow the
instructions from their manufacturers. When disposing of them, follow all
regulations applicable to industrial wastes.
12 Use a crane to mount or dismount an object that apparently weighs 20 kg or
more, that cannot be lifted with your hands, or that you feel heavy when you try
to lift it. Lifting heavy objects may place great stress on your back or let it fall
from your hands, possibly leading to injury.
s-16
CAUTION
13 Sufficiently illuminate the shop floor where the machine is installed so that you
can see the machine and parts clearly. Working in a dark place can lead to
incorrect operation, possibly causing an accident. The shop floor must be
illuminated with at least 500 lx. An optional internal light is available.
14 Do not directly look into the internal light. Be very careful to protect your eyes by
turning the light OFF when lighting is not necessary, etc.
15 Do not work in an unnatural posture, reaching out to mount or dismount
workpieces on the table when it is far away from you. Doing so may place great
stress on your back or let workpieces fall, possibly leading to injury
unexpectedly. When working with workpieces on the table, bring the table
sufficiently toward you beforehand.
16 Pressing the Emergency Stop button is the first thing you should do once a
failure occurs. Make is possible to press the Emergency Stop button whenever
necessary. Do not hang anything on the button nor cover it with anything.
17 Before you reset the Emergency Stop button, remove the cause of the
abnormality. Otherwise, a dangerous condition may recur, possibly leading to
injury.
18 Connect any related external equipment to the emergency stop function
securely. If an accident occurs, a poor connection may disable the emergency
stop device from operating normally, possibly leading to injury or damage to
tools.
19 Do not handle the operator's panel or display unit with gloved hands. Doing so
may lead to pressing the wrong key or more than one key at a time, possibly
leading to malfunction of the machine, injury, or damage to workpieces or even
the machine.
20 Install the machine on a flat, sufficiently strong floor. Otherwise, the machine
may jolt during operation, possibly leading to injury. The floor on which the
machine is installed must satisfy all of the following conditions:
2 2
 The floor must have a load resistance of 3 tf/m (29.4 kN/m ) or more.
 The floor is completely flat, with no protuberance or indent.
 The floor must not deteriorate with age and in regular use.
For recommended floor conditions, see "Chapter 1, INSTALLATION
REQUIREMENTS" in the "Part II, INSTALLATION" in the OPERATOR'S
21 Connect piping securely to prevent coolant from leaking out. If coolant leaks, the
floor becomes very slippery, thereby causing injury due to falling.
22 When an inner coolant control unit is used, if the shower gun is pointed towards
the outside of the splash guard, spilled coolant makes the floor slippery, which
can cause injury due to falling.
23 If operating the automatic door with the cover removed for inevitable inspection
reasons, be careful not to jam your fingers in the door.
24 When you operate the robot using the CNC of the ROBODRILL with the robot
interface 2 (optional), you cannot perform an operation that requires a high
response because of the characteristic of control. Therefore, be very careful
when operating the robot.
s-17
CAUTION
25 Before you start machining, securely attach the workpiece to the jig. Also keep
the jig stationary on the table. If you fail to fix the workpiece securely, it may
come off the jig and fly out during work, possibly leading to damage to the
workpiece and machine.
26 Before starting work, make sure that the tool is securely attached to the tooling.
Otherwise, the tool may come off, possibly leading to damage to the workpiece
and machine.
27 Before starting work, make sure that the tool is not worn out or broken.
Otherwise, chips of the tool may fly out, possibly leading to damage to the
machine.
28 Before starting work, make sure that the tooling is securely attached to the turret
grip as directed (see "Chapter 6, MOUNTING TOOLS" in the "Part III, ROUTINE
OPERATIONS" in the OPERATOR'S MANUAL (Detailed Version)). Otherwise,
the tooling may come off and fly out, possibly damaging the workpiece and
machine.
29 The weight of a tooling to be mounted on the turret is 2 kg or less and the total
weight of 14/21 tools is 15 kg/23 kg or less. To mount a tool with a weight of 2 kg
or more (up to 3 kg), set the tool weight to 3 kg (see "Chapter 5, TOOLS" in the
"Part I, OUTLINE" in the OPERATOR'S MANUAL (Detailed Version)). The
factory-adjusted tool weight is 3 kg for safety. If the setting is inappropriate, the
tooling may come off and fly out, possibly damaging the workpiece and machine.
30 Before starting automatic operation, make sure that:
 The jig is securely fixed on the table.
 The workpiece is securely attached to the jig.
In particular, if the jig is of an air cylinder type, the specified air pressure is
supplied. If machining is performed without fixing the workpiece and jig securely,
they may come off and fly out, possibly damaging the workpiece and machine.
NOTE
1 When using a ceiling cover as a full cover for the entire machine, be sure to use
a mist collector. Otherwise, mist of coolant can fill the inside of the machine,
possibly causing the machine to be out of order. In addition, hot air from the
spindle motor can also fill the inside of the machine, possibly causing the
machine to be out of order.
2 Make sure that proper greasing and oiling are applied to the ball screws and LM
guides along each axis. Otherwise, the ball screw or LM guide may be damaged.
The lubrication pump device hose between the table and saddle is a
consumable item. If the hose is damaged, replace it immediately.
3 After making sure that the lock is completely released, open the front door.
An attempt to open the door when the lock is not released makes an excessive
impact on the electromagnetic lock switch, possibly leading to damage to the
switch.
4 When opening or closing the front door, do so slowly (at or below 300 mm/s).
Opening or closing the front door rapidly may damage the machine.
5 If a cushion rubber on the front door is damaged or missing, replace it with, or
install, a new one promptly. Using the machine with the cushion rubber damaged
or missing may damage the machine.
s-18
NOTE
6 When installing a jig on the table, make sure that the load is applied uniformly
over the table surface. Nonuniform load on the table may lead to damage to a
ball screw or LM guide. It may also affect the precision.
7 Be careful not to generate rust in the machine. Rust may be generated on a part
on which painting is not applied such as the table surface or telescopic cover
depending on the environment. Rust generated in the machine may interfere
with the movement of a movable part, resulting in damage to the machine. For
dry cutting, in particular, periodically apply a rust inhibitor so as not to generate
rust.
8 Using the machine to grind workpieces or to cut ceramic-, carbon-, or
graphite-made workpieces may result in sealing materials being adversely
affected by fine polishing or cutting powder, possibly damaging the spindle, ball
screw, LM guide, or other parts earlier than their service life. If you want to use it
for such purposes after understanding these cautions, please contract for
fare-paying periodic maintenance.
9 Manage the coolant according to the directions from its manufacturer properly as
for its pH, the way its undiluted solution is mixed with dilution water, the salinity
concentration of the dilution water, and the frequency at which the coolant is
replaced. Otherwise, the machine may get rust or corroded, leading to machine
failure.
10 Even when using a recommended coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil),
observe the instructions from its manufacturer. It may adversely affect the
machine parts and painting depending on the way it is used.
11 Do not use any type of coolant listed below since it can adversely affect the
machine, possibly leading to machine failure:
 Coolants containing highly active sulfur: Some coolants may contain highly
active sulfur. If this type of coolant enters inside the machine, it can corrode
copper, silver, and other metals, possibly causing damage to parts.
 Highly penetrative synthetic coolants: Some coolants containing polyalkylene
glycol have a high permeability and may cause insulation degradation, poor
lubrication, or component failure when it enters inside the machine.
 High-alkali, water-soluble coolants: Some coolants to which alkanolamines
and other agents are added to increase the pH value may be strongly
alkaline, which have a pH of 10 or more even with the working solution. This
type of coolant can cause damage to resin and other materials if adhered to
them for a long time.
 Coolants containing chlorine: Some coolants containing chlorine (for
example, chloride components, such as chlorinated paraffin) affect materials
such as resin and rubber badly, leading to possible defective parts.
12 Sweep off chips from the inside of the machine frequently. Check the inside of
each axis cover and casting for any chips semiannually. If chips are found inside
any axis cover or casting, remove them. Even when using a recommended
coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil), observe the instructions from its
manufacturer. It may adversely affect the machine parts and painting depending
on the way it is used.
s-19
NOTE
13 To prevent coolant and other liquids, and chips from entering the inside of the
control unit, be sure to close and lock the control unit cabinet door. For the same
purpose, be sure to close the covers of the operator's panel and cable duct and
tighten the cover mounting screws securely. Keep the operator's panel and cable
duct cover from any cutting fluid splash.
14 When installing the machine, provide a service access clearance. See the floor
plan shown in "Section 3.1 INSTALLING LEVELING BOLTS AND BLOCKS" in
the "Part II, INSTALLATION" in the OPERATOR'S MANUAL (Detailed Version)
for explanations about the service access clearance.
15 Do not apply any load to the splash guard by, for example, putting your hand on
it during machining. Otherwise, the machining accuracy will be adversely
affected.
16 Do not aim the inner coolant control unit nozzle at the gap of the cover around
each movable part, LM guide, ball screw, motor, or other parts. The lubricant is
flushed and coolant enters the inside of the machine, probably causing machine
failure.
17 When you perform machining on a certain portion for a long time, in which the
travel distance of the Z-axis is very small, the oil film may break down locally at
certain locations such as the Z-axis bearing, LM guide, ball screw, etc. causing
machine failure. In such cases, we recommend that you add a movement in
which the Z-axis periodically moves approximately 150 mm to the program.
18 The tooling pull stud shall be tightened with a torque recommended by the
tooling manufacturer. If the tightening torque is too high/low, it may cause
deformation or loosening of the tooling, possibly leading to machine damage or
poor accuracy.
19 The spindle air purge pressure is factory-set to a recommended value. When
performing periodical inspection, check that the spindle air purge regulator (at
the rear of the machine) is set within the recommended pressure range to avoid
any cutting fluid to enter inside the spindle. Otherwise, this may cause spindle
failure. Additionally, if the spindle air purge pressure is outside the
recommended pressure range, turn the knob of the spindle air purge regulator to
adjust the pressure to the recommended setting value (0.08 MPa).

1.6 NOISE
FANUC has internally conducted measurement tests to confirm that the level of noise emitted from this
machine during normal operation is 70 dB or lower.
The EU Directive 2003/10/EC stipulates the limit value for daily (8 hours) noise exposure levels at the
workplace at 87 dB (A) Leq. However, it also requires that protective equipment (hearing protectors
including ear plugs and ear muffs) shall be prepared when the noise level exceeds 80 dB, and such
protective equipment shall be worn by workers when the level exceeds 85 dB.
Therefore, hearing protectors are not mandatory for normal operation performed within our assumed
range; however, you must provide and wear hearing protectors such as ear plugs and ear muffs when the
noise level during operation exceeds 85 dB depending on your operational environment, etc.
s-27
1.7 WARNING LABELS

3.1.2 Replenishing the Tank with Coolant

WARNING
1 Do not use any coolant with a low inflammation point (such as class 2 petroleum,
with an inflammation point of below 70°C). Otherwise, a fire may occur. Even
when using a coolant that belongs to category III mineral oil (with a flash point of
70 to 200°C), category IV mineral oil (with a flash point of 200 to 250°C), or
flame-retardant oil (with a flash point higher than 250°C), be careful with the
usage status and method to prevent the possibility of a fire by, for example,
preventing the generation of greasy fumes or correctly applying a coolant to the
cutting point.
2 Do not use a deteriorated coolant or lubricant (grease or oil) because it is very
hazardous. Store or dispose of such coolant or lubricant according to the
3 Avoid using any coolant or lubricant (such as grease or oil) that can unmake
polycarbonate, nitrile rubber (NBR), hydrogenated nitrile rubber (HNBR),
fluorocarbon rubber, nylon, acrylate resin, and ABS resins. If diluted water
includes much residual chlorine, the above materials are deteriorated. As the
machine uses these substances as sealant, such sealant properties may be lost,
possibly leading to an electrical shock due to fault current or a burn due to lack of
grease resulting from a spill.
4 Always maintain a sufficient amount of coolant for machining. If a coolant is
insufficient, a fire due to a rise in temperature may be caused or the cutting tool
or workpiece may be broken.
- 21 -
NOTE
1 Manage the coolant according to the directions from its manufacturer properly as
for its pH, the way its undiluted solution is mixed with dilution water, the salinity
concentration of the dilution water, and the frequency at which the coolant is
replaced. Otherwise, the machine may get rust or corroded, leading to trouble on
the machine.
2 Do not use any type of coolant listed below since it can adversely affect the
machine, possibly leading to machine failure:
• Coolant containing sulfur with a high reactivity: Some coolants contain sulfur
with a high reactivity. If they enter the inside of the machine, they corrode
metals such as cupper or silver, thereby causing components to fail.
• Synthetic coolant with a high permeability: Some coolants containing
polyalkylene glycol have a high permeability and may cause insulation
degradation, poor lubrication, or a component failure when entering the inside
of the machine.
• High-alkali, water-soluble coolants: Some coolants to which alkanolamines
and other agents are added to increase the pH value may be strongly alkaline,
which have a pH of 10 or more even with the working solution. This type of
coolant can cause damage to resin and other materials if adhered to them for
a long time.
• Coolants containing chlorine: Some coolants containing chlorine (for example,
chloride components, such as chlorinated paraffin) affect materials such as
resin and rubber badly, leading to possible defective parts.
3 Skim off oil on the coolant in the tank frequently to remove oil from the coolant
completely. By reducing the amount of oil in the coolant, the amount of sludge to
be generated can be reduced.
4 Keep the coolant fresh all the time. New coolant emulsifies the oil in sludge again
with its surfactant property, having a certain effect of cleaning sludge attached to
the machine.
The following coolants are recommended:

Property Manufacturer Product name
Yushiro Chemical Industry Yushiroken FGE350 *
Castrol Alusol B
Soluble
JX Nippon Oil & Energy Unisoluble EM-B
Blaser Swisslube Blasocut 2000 CF
* Yushiro Chemical Industry Yushiroken FGE350 falls under the control of the Pollutant Release and
Transfer Register (PRTR) law. FGE350PR, which does not fall under the control of this law, is
recommended for use in Japan.

Replenishment procedure
A coolant goes down gradually as it is used. A water-soluble coolant, in particular, goes down by a
substantial amount a day because of water evaporation. At the beginning of every workday, be sure to
check the amount of the coolant. If it is low, replenish or dilute it with water.
A coolant gauge is on the rear side surface of the tank.
Replenish the tank with coolant so that the value indicated by the indicator does not exceed "MAX."
Coolant gauge
Fig. 3.1.2 (a) Coolant gauge
Use the cut scrap receiver when pouring additional coolant or water in the tank.
Water-soluble coolant must be diluted with water in advance and poured into the tank via the cut scrap
receiver. If water is directly poured via the cut scrap receiver, rust may be formed on the perimeter.

3.1.3 Inspecting Tools
Inspection procedure
1. Check whether the tools set in the turret correspond correctly to the tool numbers marked on the turret,
whether the tools are broken, and whether the tools are entwined with cutting chips.
Fig. 3.1.3 Checking tools
Respecify the offset amount and replace the tool that is worn out with a new one as required.
For details on how to respecify the offset amount, see the OPERATOR'S MANUAL (Detailed Version)

3.2.2 Cleaning
After turning off the power, clean the machine in the same way as for starting work.
3.2.3 Inspecting Each Section

Inspect each section of the machine in the same way as for starting work.
3.2.4 Cleaning the Coolant Tank

When the machine is equipped with a coolant unit, remove chips in the chip tray at the end of the day's
work or when chips have accumulated.
CAUTION
When cleaning, wear gloves to prevent injury due to chips.
Cleaning procedures
1. If necessary, move the coolant tank toward the back of the machine for easier maintenance, and then
sweep chips into a container using a scoop or brush.
Fig. 3.2.4 (a) Cleaning the chip tray
2. When chips are accumulated in the tank or coolant is replaced, remove the chip tray and clean the
inside of the tank.

3.2.5 Spindle Run-in

In the case where the spindle has not been rotated for about one week or longer immediately after the
machine is installed, perform a dry run of the spindle when a spindle unit (shaft, motor, etc.) is replaced.
The spindle dry-run program is stored in “//CNC_MEM/SYSTEM/” as program number O9050.
To perform a dry run, execute this program O9050.
It takes approximately four hours until a dry-run is completed for the standard spindle, high-torque
spindle, and high acceleration spindle, and approximately five hours for the high-speed spindle.
NOTE
The calculated life of the spindle under normal operating conditions is
approximately 10000 hours in maximum continuous rotation operation
However, since the actual life greatly depends on the use conditions such as the
cutting load or processing heat, the spindle may become damaged in a relatively
short period of time.
If abnormal noise, vibration, or an abnormal temperature rise is detected, contact
the nearest FANUC technical center.
The guarantee period of the spindle is restricted by that of the machine body.
3.2.6 X-/Y-/Z-Axis Run-in

At the closing time of every workday, reciprocate all axes (X-, Y-, and Z-axes) several times full-stroke
so that lubricating oil (or grease) will run through the ball screws and LM guides entirely.
If the machine is equipped with an automatic lubricating unit, manually operate (by means of the
lubricating pump button or “ON” on the maintenance screen) the lubricating pump once or twice, and
then reciprocate all axes (X-, Y-, and Z-axes) several times full-stroke. If the machine is equipped with an
automatic greasing unit, it is unnecessary to operate the lubricating pump.
When it is expected that the machine will be left unused for about a week or longer, apply grease to the
LM guides, ball screws, and telescopic covers (including the YR cover) of all axes entirely for rust
prevention purposes. The type of grease to be used on the LM guides and ball screws, see "Recommended
Lubricants" in "PERIODICAL MAINTENANCE."

Cautions to be observed during maintenance work

DANGER
1 Before you open the front door, make sure that the Z-axis (spindle head) will not
move down. The Z-axis comes down once in a long while because of the Z-axis
brake failing to work. After the door is opened, pay attention to the possible falling
of the Z-axis. During maintenance under the Z-axis, place a wooden block
between the table and Z-axis so that the Z-axis will not come down even if the
brake fails to work.
2 When opening the front door after the power is turned off, make sure that the
spindle is not rotating. If the power is turned off while the spindle is rotating,
control cannot be exercised to stop the spindle. In this case, the spindle keeps
rotating by coasting, so you may be injured because chips can scatter or the
spindle can touch you.

WARNING
2 Only maintenance engineers are allowed to replace the battery for CNC memory
backup. Persons in charge of routine maintenance and preventive maintenance
are not allowed to do such work. If a person with no sufficient knowledge does
such work, the safety unit may not function normally and the machine may make
an unpredictable motion, resulting in an injury or electric shock.
3 Keep in mind that setting the control unit cabinet door circuit breaker to its OFF
position does not remove the power from its primary side. Keep in mind that the
following units may be connected to the primary side of the circuit breaker:
1) External power supply transformer (if provided)
2) Non-standard peripheral unit (if provided)
4 When working at a high elevation, use a ladder and secure a footing to reduce a
possibility of falling. Do not climb the machine or any other thing (such as a chair
or desk) that is not intended for use as a step ladder. Otherwise, you may lose
balance, possibly leading to an accident.
5 Do not touch the following portions of the machine when the power is ON and for
a while after the power is switched OFF because they may be very hot. The
temperature of these portions may become very high with a risk of burn injury.
When you need to touch those components, wear a protector such as
heat-resistant gloves.
• Power line
• Heat generating sections (such as a transformer and heat sink) in the controller
cabinet
6 Be careful not to touch the components of the machine indicated below during
operation or for a while after the end of operation. Otherwise, you may be burned
because those components may be heated. When you need to touch those
components, wear a protector such as heat-resistant gloves.
• Servo motor for each axis (X-axis, Y-axis, Z-axis, additional axis)
• Spindle motor
• Coolant motor
7 When replacing maintenance parts, observe the descriptions in this manual. If an
unsuitable part is used or an incorrect method of replacement is used, the
machine can malfunction and cause an injury.
Cautions to be observed at the end of maintenance work

WARNING
1 When turning on the power to operate the machine during or after maintenance
work, make sure that no tools are left inside the machine. Otherwise, a tool can be
blown to hit a human.
2 After completion of maintenance work, reinstall all components including screws

4.2 SPECIFIED BRANDS OF LUBRICANT

WARNING
Do not use coolants and lubricants (grease and oil) that can change the properties
of polycarbonate, nitrile rubber (NBR), hydrogenated nitrile rubber (HNBR),
fluororubber, nylon, and acrylic resin, ABS resins. The properties of these
materials can also be changed when diluent water contains a large amount of
residual chlorine. Because this machine uses these materials as sealing
materials, use of such a coolant, lubricant, or diluent water can degrade the
sealing effect. Degraded sealing can cause current leakage, resulting in an
electric shock. Degraded sealing can also cause grease to leak and be burnt in.
CAUTION
If a coolant or lubricant (grease or oil) not recommended is used, obtain the SDS
(Safety Data Sheet), check the instruction of the supplier, and carefully check the
condition and method of use. Otherwise, the human body, machine, and
environment can be adversely affected.
NOTE
Even when using a recommended coolant or lubricant (grease or oil), obtain the
SDS and be sure to follow the instruction of the supplier. Depending on the use
method, the machine components and painting can be adversely affected.

4.6 REPLACING EXPENDABLE PARTS
4.6.1 Battery
(1) Absolute Pulsecoder battery replacement
(2) CNC memory backup battery replacement
4.6.1.1 Absolute Pulsecoder battery replacement

One battery unit can maintain current position data for six absolute pulse coders for a year.
When the voltage of the battery becomes low, the APC alarm 307 (low battery voltage alarm) is displayed
on the CRT display. The battery should be replaced as soon as possible.
If the voltage of the battery becomes any lower, the APC alarm 306 (battery voltage 0 alarm) is issued
and the current position of the pulse coder can no longer be memorized. When the power to the CNC is
turned on in this state, the APC alarm 300 (reference position return request alarm) is issued. Return the
tool to the reference position after replacing the battery.
It is recommended that the battery should be replaced annually even if an APC alarm does not occur.
Replacing batteries
Obtain four commercially available alkaline batteries (size D).
1 Turn on the power to the CNC.。
2 Loosen the screws of the battery case and remove the cover.
3 Replace the dry batteries in the case.
Note the polarity of the batteries as shown in the figure below (orient two batteries one way and the
other two in the opposite direction).
Screw
Cover
Fig. 4.6.1.1 Replacing batteries
4 After installing the new batteries, replace the cover.

5 Turn off the power to the CNC.
WARNING
Use specified alkaline batteries (size D) and replace them in the correct way. If a
battery is installed in a wrong way, it can explode, causing you to get injured.
- 78 -
NOTE
Replace batteries while the power is on. Note that if batteries are replaced when
the power is off, the stored absolute position is lost.
4.6.1.2 CNC memory backup battery replacement

Offset data and system parameters are stored in the SRAM of the CNC. The power supply of the SRAM
is backed up by the memory backup battery installed in the CNC. Therefore, even if the main power is
interrupted, no data is lost.
When the voltage of the battery drops, alarm message "BAT" blinks in the CNC screen. If the alarm
blinks or is output, the battery should be replaced as soon as possible. Within one week as a guide,
however, how long the battery can be used after issuance of the alarm depends on the system structure.
If the voltage of the battery further drops, the memory cannot be backed up. When the power of the CNC
is turned on in such a state, a system alarm occurs because data in the memory is lost. The battery should
be replaced and then data in the memory should be all cleared and input again.
Therefore, FANUC recommends that the battery should be replaced annually even if a battery alarm does
not occur.
NOTE
During shipment from FANUC, the lithium battery is installed in the CNC as
standard. This battery can back up the data in the memory for one year.
Replacing the lithium battery

Prepare a new lithium battery (ordering information: A02B-0323-K102) in advance.
1. Turn on the power of the CNC, and when it has started up, turn it off.
2. Pull out the lithium battery installed in the back of the CNC. (Pull it out while pinching the latch of
the lithium battery to release the hook engaging the case.)
Pull out the battery while

pinching the latch

3. Install the new lithium battery prepared in advance. (Push the lithium battery until its hook engages
the case.) Make sure that the hook securely engages the case.
Push the battery until

its hook engages the
case
Fig. 4.6.1.2 (b) Replacing the lithium battery (2)
WARNING
The lithium battery may explode unless it is correctly replaced.
Be sure to use the specified lithium battery (A02B-0323-K102).
CAUTION
Steps 1 to 3 must be done within 30 minutes.
If the battery is removed for an extended period of time, data in the SRAM may be
lost.
Save the data in the SRAM before replacement. This enables recovery of the data
in the SRAM easy if it is lost.
NOTE
The replaced battery should be correctly discarded as factory wastes according to
the law etc. specified by the country in which the machine is installed or by the
local government that exercises jurisdiction over the installation place. Before
discarding it, insulate terminals with vinyl tape etc. to prevent them from being
short-circuited.
