Chapter 9: Maintenance - HS

NOTE: This chapter applies to the Adept Quattro HS robots only.

NOTE: Maintenance and cleaning of user-added optional equipment is the user’s
responsibility. It is not covered in this manual.

NOTE: Some of the parts contained within the Adept Quattro HS robots are not
FDA-compliant, but are contained within another assembly that is.

NOTE: When performing maintenance on the robot, move any sub-assemblies
away from the food processing area, to avoid any chance of contamination. Cover
or protect the food processing area.

CAUTION: Over-torquing any bolts that have washer
seals can damage the washer seals. Observe the stated
torques.

9.1 Cleaning

Water Shedding

Surfaces of the Adept Quattro HS robots have been designed to shed water. This increases the
likelihood that contaminants or cleaning agents will drain with a wash-down procedure.

Wash-Down

Wash-down cleaning is appropriate for cleaning the Adept Quattro HS robot. Surfaces and
joints have been designed with smooth internal radii for easy cleaning.
