operation.
1. Test operation of:
l
E-Stop button on front panel
l
E-Stop button on pendant
l Auto/Manual switch on front panel

Refer to the following table for torque specifications.
Table 9-5. Mounting Bolt Torque Specifications
Standard Size Minimum Specification Torque
Metric M16-2.0 x 40 mm ISO Property Class 5.8 98 N·m (74 ft-lb)
9.5 Checking Robot Gear Drives
Adept Quattro robots use gear drives, which use oil in their components for lubrication. It is
recommended that you periodically inspect the robot for signs of oil on and around the gear
drives.
NOTE: Check the operation of the fans while the motor covers are off.
See Checking Fan Operation on page 159.
1. Remove all power to the robot before starting this check.
Lock out and tag out AC power.
2. Wait for the motors to cool before performing this check.
WARNING: Do not remove the encoder cable connectors
from their sockets on the motors. If they are removed, the
calibration data will be lost and the robot must be
recalibrated, which requires special software and tools
