SAFETY PRECAUTATIONS
• Be certain to read this manual carefully before performing installation, wiring, or maintenance work, or operating the
HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch.
• The HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch has been manufactured with careful regard to qual-
ity. However, if you intend to use this product in applications where failure of this equipment may result in damage to
property or injury, ensure that it used in conjunction with appropriate fail-safe backup equipment.
• In this manual, safety precautions are categorized in order of importance to Warning and Caution:
Warning notices are used to emphasize that improper operation may cause severe personal injury or death.
Caution notices are used where inattention might cause personal injury or damage to equipment.
• The HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch is not intended to be used for applications which
require high reliability and safety, such as medical equipment, nuclear equipment, railways, aircraft, and vehicles.
The HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch cannot be used for these applications.
• For other applications which require high reliability in function and precision, provide a failsafe design and redundant
design for the entire system including the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch.
• Turn off the power to the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch before installation, removal, wir-
ing, maintenance, and inspection of the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch. Failure to turn
power off may cause electrical shock or fire hazard.
• Special expertise is required to install, wire, configure, and operate the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G,
HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch. People without such expertise must not use the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G,
HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch.
• The HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch uses an LCD (liquid crystal display) as a display
device. The liquid inside the LCD is harmful to the skin. If the LCD is broken and the liquid attaches to your skin or
clothes, wash the liquid off using soap, and consult a doctor immediately.
• Emergency and interlocking circuits must be configured outside of the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/3F/4F
and Touch. Do not use the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/3F/4F and Touch’s internal touch switches for an
emergency circuit. If the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch failed, the external equipment
connected to the HG2G-S/-5S/-5F, HG3G/4G, HG1F/2F/2S/3F/4F and Touch will no longer be protected, and serious
injury to operators and equipment damage may be caused. Also, connect the emergency stop switch (Direct opening
action, Red switch) or the stop switch (Direct opening action, Gray switch) on the HG2S to the emergency stop circuit
fixed to the machine in accordance with ISO13850/EN418.
• If an emergency stop switch is used for the HG2S, it should be secured and connected to the machine for fear of dis-
connecting easily.
• Connect the emergency stop switch or the stop switch and the enabling switch on the HG2S to function as either a
category 0 or category 1 stop in accordance with IEC/EN60204-1 which applies to the HG2S.
• When the HG2S cable can be easily disconnected from the machine, use the HG2S with a stop switch so that the
operator can easily notice that the HG2S is NOT an emergency stop device which always functions.
