Safety InstructionsGeneral and Personal Safety Precautions
[PERSONAL SAFETY]For personal safety, observe the following general precautions: A second person should be available to disable the system in an emergency. Wear appropriate protectIIIe gear that fits comfortably. Do not wear loose-fitting clothes. If you are wearing a long-sleeved shirt, fold the
cuffs up your arm. Never wear gloves close to moving parts. Necklaces, ties and scarves should be tucked inside shirts. Long hair should be covered.
[ELECTRICAL TOOL SAFETY]When using Electrical Tools make sure to: Use tools that are in good operating order. Any tool that appears electrically or
Mechanically faulty must be labeled and sent immediately for repair. Make sure that you are electrically insulated when using electrical tools. Wear
rubber-soled shoes and stand on a dry surface. If, during the use of electrical equipment, you feel an electrical discharge (e.g. a
tickling sensation on your skin) immediately stop using that tool. Label it, and send it forrepair.
[GENERAL SITE SAFETY REQUIREMENTS] Fire extinguishers must be in working order and within easy reach. The main power supply switch must be easily accessible. The system site must be suitably illuminated from all sides. Before operation, carefully read the warning labels on your Cutting plotter unit as
well as the cautions and warnings in this manual. Connect the Cutting plotter to a properly grounded power outlet. Make sure the
voltage level of the Cutting plotter matches that of the power source. Don’t dissemble the unit while system power is on since the power supplies inside
contain high voltage. Never leave the machine unattended during operation. Follow the instructions on maintaining and cleaning your system. Not only will this
enable you to utilize your machine efficiently, but it will also ensure that yourmachine runs safely.

Diagnostic Test for Motor Encoder and Tool Holder Encoder
Troubleshooting
Puma III maintenance manual 31-2
This feature provides the ability to diagnose the X and Y motor encoder and tool holder encoder. If the encoder is defectIIIe,the cutting plotter cannot work properly. To check if the encoder is bad or good, you can apply a slight force to the tested part(such as a drum, the tool carriage or the tool holder) then examine the readings. If the encoder reading changes dramatically,the encoder is bad. Refer to the maintenance chapter to replace the motor or tool carriage.

Diagnostic Test for Tool Force (VCM)
This test is to diagnose the VCM. If the VCM is bad, the tool carriage cannot perform the up/down action that generates thetools force on the material.
Note: VCM means Voice Coil Motor that generates tool force
Diagnostic Test for Motor Movement
This feature is to diagnose the X and Y motors and drIIIers. If you encounter a motor movement problem, try to change themain board first. If the problem still remains after replacing the main board, try replacing the motor.
