performed when the arm is within the mold, move the upper/lower arm to the mold rise standby
position by return to starting point control or jog motion.
■ When returning the upper/lower arm to the starting point, make sure that there is no obstruction in
the movement path.
■ If there is obstruction in the movement path during the return to starting point of the upper/lower arm,
avoid contacting the obstruction by means of jog motion.
■ Even if the arm is out of the mold and is in the state of descending, return to starting point
can be executed without any problem.
■ If the return to starting point has already been completed after power turn-on, it is possible to
perform the return to starting point even if the arm is within the mold.
Warning
・Avoid contacting with the mold when returning to starting point by means of jog
motion.
・When making jog motion, be sure to check the position of obstruction and reduce
the speed of the return to starting point control.
