CHAPTER 3. GENERAL HARDWARE INFORMATION 3.9. QUALIFIED PERSONNEL
3.8.2.2 Wear and Tear
The mobile robot has been designed for longest possible operational life and is almost maintenance free. It is never-
theless advisable to regularly check the robot and all related devices and components for signs of wear.
• Mechanical damages to operating elements, covers and other components will reduce protection against contact.
They might also cause delayed and surprising malfunctions.
• Damages, deformations or dirt on the drive and castor wheels can cause unsafe or inaccurate movements and
lead to loss of localisation.
• Vibrations and increased noises during operation can be indicators of something chafing or of mechanical over-
load.
• Unusual heat can point to mechanical or electrical overload or to batteries that are worn out and should be
replaced.
• A reduced uptime between charging cycles is often caused by old batteries that have lost a significant part of
their capacity.
