Appendix 5 Cleaning and Maintenance
General Care
After transport, the machine may exhibit an error on its Teach pendant
that prevents enabling of the axes; this is due to slight shifting of the arms
in transport, creating an out of position error. This can be corrected by
going through the Second Home Position reset as explained in the Second
Home Position Check and Reset on page 45.
Inspect carefully the cableways along the arms for damage or stretching of
cables, and ensure any cable clamps and flexing corners are adjusted to
suit.
Take great care with the large multi way connectors on the base, arm and
umbilical. If they are unplugged for transport ensure they are wrapped or
covered so the tiny pins cannot get damaged. Do not spry cleaning fluids
into these plugs and sockets.
Cleaning
The Bolt X on tracks should be turned off and unplugged for cleaning.
Main Body and Arm
The Bolt X on Track requires little maintenance, but should be cleaned
frequently depending upon where it is used. Clean the main body of the
rig and arm with a proprietary cleaning liquid on a soft cloth, then go
over the machine with a cloth with WD40, or similar. Gaffer Tape smears
can be removed with sticky stuff remover. Fans in the body of the
machine should be sucked with a vacuum cleaner.
Cables
Cables should be also cleaned in the same way, but avoid spraying liquids
into any open sockets.
Pinchwheel
The Pinch wheel should be checked occasionally. Any signs of damage to
the red rubber wheel should have it replaced. Limit sensors on the pinch
wheel pivot should be replaced whenever they become broken or their
cables damaged.
