ABB IRB 14000 - Scrapping of Robot; Important When Scrapping the Robot

6.3 Scrapping of robot
Important when scrapping the robot
DANGER
When a robot is disassembled while being scrapped, it is very important to
remember the following before disassembling starts, in order to prevent injuries:
• Always remove all batteries from the robot. If a battery is exposed to heat,
for example from a blow torch, it will explode.
• Always remove all oil/grease in gearboxes. If exposed to heat, for example
from a blow torch, the oil/grease will catch fire.
• When motors are removed from the robot, the robot will collapse if it is not
properly supported before the motor is removed.
