Do not use oil or grease on any exposed part of the
equipment. This is unnecessary and traps dirt which acts
as an abrasive.
■ ■ Do not use solvent or oil-based cleaners, abrasives or
wire brushes to remove accumulations of dirt as these
damage the protective surfaces. To clean mechanical
surfaces, use only detergent based cleaners.

External electrical connection ports should only be
cleaned with a semi-stiff brush or using a vacuum cleaner.
Notes about Robotic equipment
Display prominent warning signs in studios, alerting
personnel that robotic equipment is present and may move
without warning. Ensure personnel remain a minimum of 1m
(40 inches) clear of robotic equipment in use. Operators
must familiarise themselves with the resulting working
envelope of robotic products including all ancillary
equipment (lens, zoom and focus controls, viewfinder,
prompter etc.), to prevent inadvertent collisions. Only
operate robotic products remotely when you can see them
to avoid harm to personnel and collisions with obstacles and
other hazards.
Power sources
Only connect the equipment to a power supply of the type
as marked on the equipment.
Cables
Always ensure that all power and auxiliary communications
cables are routed so that they do not present any danger to
personnel. Take care when routing cables in areas where
robotic equipment is in use.
