3.1 Transport and Storage
This equipment must be shipped and stored in a temperature-controlled environment, within
the range –25 to +55° C (-13 to 131° F). The recommended humidity range is 5 to 90 percent,
non-condensing. It should be shipped and stored in the Adept-supplied crate, which is
designed to prevent damage from normal shock and vibration. You should protect the crate
from excessive shock and vibration.
Use a forklift, pallet jack, or similar device to transport and store the packaged equipment.
The robot must always be stored and shipped in an upright position in a clean, dry area that
is free from condensation. Do not lay the crate on its side or any other non-upright position.
This could damage the robot.
The Adept Quattro robot weighs 118 to 123 kg (260 to 271 lb) with no options installed.
3.2 Unpacking and Inspecting the Adept Equipment
Before Unpacking
Carefully inspect all shipping crates for evidence of damage during transit. If any damage is
indicated, request that the carrier’s agent be present at the time the container is unpacked.
Upon Unpacking
Before signing the carrier’s delivery sheet, compare the actual items received (not just the
packing slip) with your equipment purchase order. Verify that all items are present and that
the shipment is correct and free of visible damage.
l If the items received do not match the packing slip, or are damaged, do not sign the
receipt. Contact Adept as soon as possible (see How Can I Get Help? on page 25).
l If the items received do not match your order, please contact Adept immediately.
Retain all containers and packaging materials. These items may be necessary to settle claims
or, at a later date, to relocate the equipment.
Unpacking
The Quattro HS robot is shipped in a crate that holds the robot base, outer arms, platform,
controller, miscellaneous hardware, and any accessories ordered. The crate will be combined
wood and cardboard.
The top of the crate should be removed first.
1. Remove the bands holding the top to the rest of the crate. Refer to the following figure.
The outer arms will be above the robot base. These should be removed from the crate,
followed by the cardboard and foam that support them.
