An apparatus for performing an operation on a circuit substrate, the apparatus including a plurality of operating devices which are provided in a space that is closed and opened by a safety cover and one of which performs the operation on the circuit substrate, a safety-cover switch which is switchable to an ON state thereof corresponding to a closed state of the safety cover, and to an OFF state thereof corresponding to an opened state of the safety cover, a maintenance-related control device which keeps, in a maintenance mode, at least one of the operating devices to a state thereof in which the one operating device is operable, and a maintenance-mode setting switch which cooperates with the safety-cover switch to provide a parallel circuit, and which is selectively operable to an ON state thereof in which the maintenance-mode setting switch allows setting of the maintenance mode, and to an OFF state thereof in which the maintenance-mode setting switch does not allow the setting of the maintenance mode.

Apparatus for performing operation on circuit substrate

A method of inspecting whether a printed board is appropriately supported by a supporting device, when a holding device holding an electric component mounts the electric component on the printed board supported by the supporting device, the method including the steps of taking, with an image taking device, an image of at least one prescribed detection portion of the printed board supported by the supporting device, and judging, based on image data representing the taken image of the detection portion, whether the printed board is appropriately supported by the supporting device.
