2.6 Robot in hot environments

2.6.1 Start of robot in hot environments

Introduction

This procedure describes how to start the robot in a hot environment. This

procedure must be performed the first time the robot is started in a hot environment

or if it has not been used for some time in a hot environment.

There is a possibility that some overpressure has been built up in the system. This

overpressure must be released before starting up the robot.

Releasing overpressure in gearboxes

Use this procedure before the start of the robot in a hot environment to release

potential overpressure being built up in gearboxes.
