Maintenance
In order to use the product for a long time without anomalies, it should be checked and maintained at regular
intervals. The maintenance of the robot system must be carried out by Hyundai Robotics or a service provider
designated by it.
The purpose of maintenance works is to maintain the robot system at the operable state or to restore it to the
operable state in case of problems. Maintenance works include not only repairs of the robot system but also
diagnoses of its problems.
In checking the robot system, the applicable work safety regulations of the country or locality must be complied with.
All the possibilities of risks should be tested during maintenance, and risk assessment should be carried out to verify
if the system meets the safety requirements after maintenance.
In carrying out maintenance works of the collaborative robot or the controller, make sure to comply with the
following safety instructions:
Before maintenance, disconnect the power cables, and ensure that other power sources connected to the
robot or the controller are turned off.
During maintenance, keep the existing safety setting of the software as it is.
During maintenance, take precautions so that foreign matters such as water or dust do not penetrate into the
product.
If a defective part is found, replace it with a new one having the same specifications with the part to be
replaced, and return the defective part to Hyundai Robotics. Make sure to use parts, consumables, and
software certified by Hyundai Robotics.
Upon completing maintenance, reactivate the safety functions.
Record the details of the maintenance and repair works in the technical file relating to the entire robot system.
