REGULAR MAINTENANCE
After each deployment, it is important to perform some
basic maintenance:
1. Always re-insert the activation plate in the robot and
turn the OCU off.
2. Keep the system clean of dust and debris.
3. Ensure the system is fully dry before charging or
storing.
4. Inspect the robot for wear on its tail, wheels, and
antennas.
a. Wheels – If the wheels are loose, tighten the nut
with a 5/16” nut driver. The wheels should spin
freely. Inspect the wheels for wear, rips, or tears.
b. Tail – If the tail is loose, use a 3/32” hex driver to
tighten the bolts holding the tail. Tighten until
the tail just begins to deform under the screw
pressure. Do not over-tighten.
c. Antennas – Visually inspect for scuffing or cracking.
If the wire is exposed or if the antennas have been
severely kinked, antennas should to be replaced.
The antennas should stand nearly vertical.
d. If any of the above are missing and/or damaged,
please contact [email protected] to
arrange for service.
5. Inspect the OCU for wear.
a. Antennas – Ensure that the antennas are not bent
or kinked and that they are able to be easily rotated.
b. Joystick Bars – Rarely, (typically if the OCU is
dropped or experiences excessive vibration), the
joystick bars can be knocked loose. That loose screw
can rattle loose and cause damage to the electrical
systems.
c. Screen – Check for scratches and other damage
to the screen.
d. If any of the above are damaged, please contact
[email protected] to arrange for service.
6. Recharge the robot and OCU as described on page
13-14.
NOTE: There are no user serviceable parts inside. DO NOT
DISASSEMBLE YOUR ROBOT OR OCU. Service is available
from the manufacturer or regional service centers only.
Disassembly and/or modification of the product or its software
and firmware will void your warranty and applicable licenses.
