3.2.2. Maintenance schedule
General
The robot must be maintained regularly to ensure proper function. The maintenance activities
and intervals are specified in the table below.
Non-predictable situations also give rise to inspections of the robot. Any damages must be
attended to immediately!
The inspection intervals do not specify the life of each component.
Activities and intervals, standard equipment
The table below specifies the required maintenance activities and intervals and also refers to
the section where performing the activity is detailed.
1. Change the oil for the first time after 4,000 h, then after every 60 month.
2. Changing interval if the robot is working in an environment temperature over 40ºC.
3. The battery is used as a back-up when the robot system is switched off. Therefore, the
life of a lithium battery depends on how frequently the power to the system is switched
off and also if the environment temperature is higher than recommended operating
temperature. The life varies from 12 - 36 mths, depending on current conditions. An
alert is given on the TPU or the FlexPendant when the battery is nearly discharged and
it must then be replaced within a month.
