8.7 Replacing Non-Periodic Parts
Release the E-Stop button to return the HD-1500 to service. See: Releasing an E-Stop on page

Remove and Replace the Side Skins
The side skins enclose the drive train assembly and the E-Stop button components. The side
skins are symmetric. Use the same procedure to remove either a right-side or a left-side skin.
However, you must not exchangethe side skins as this will cause the light discs to display
incorrect light pattern motion. The side skins include the light discs assembly, which is con-
nected by a lightweight cable.
No tools are needed for either the removal or installation of the side skins.
Before you begin, press an E-Stop button and turn the HD-1500 off.

WARNING: PERSONALINJURYORPROPERTYDAMAGERISK
Take care when working near the encoder cables to make sure that they are not-
disconnected or damaged. Improper connection or disconnection of encoder
cables may result in erratic motion of the AMR during operation. The AMR
might rotate uncontrollably during loss of encoder signals.
To remove either side skin:
1.
Locate the side skin latches ((A)in Figure 8-56. ) as shown in the following figure. The
latches also act as recessed handles for easy grip.

Grip the skin at the two recessed handles, and press inward to unlatch. Do not pull the
skin away at this point, it is secured by a light disc cable.
