8.1 Safety Aspects While Performing Maintenance
DANGER: During maintenance and repair, the power to the docking sta-
tion must be turned off. Remove and lock up the power cord to prevent
unauthorized third parties from turning on power. The access covers on
the docking station are not interlocked.
DANGER: Only skilled or instructed persons, as defined in the Adept
Robot Safety Guide, should perform the procedures and replacement of
parts covered in this section.
DANGER: During maintenance and repair of the platform, disconnect
the battery as soon as possible. Avoid shorting the terminals of the bat-
tery.
8.2 Periodic Maintenance Schedule
The drive motors and gearbox are sealed and permanently lubricated, so they do not require
periodic maintenance.
