8.6 Engage and Disengage the Drive Wheel Motors
Some procedures, such as commissioning or shipping the LD-250 require that you engage or
disengage the drive wheel motors. This enables the drive wheel to rotate freely. The drive gear-
box provides a cam lever that disengages the main drive cog, disconnecting the motor from
the drive wheels.
IMPORTANT: For shipping, the LD-250's drive wheels motors are engaged, pre-
venting you from rolling the LD-250 off its shipping pallet and down the ramp.
You must disengage the drive wheel motors before you attempt to manually
move the LD-250. See: LD-250 Packaging on page 48.
You can also disengage the drive wheel motors if you want to manually move the LD-250, as
an alternative to using the Brake Release button. See: Brake Release Button on page 127.

a level surface with the casters chocked and an E-Stop pressed to prevent move-
ment.

WARNING: PERSONALINJURYORPROPERTYDAMAGERISK
Make sure the encoder cables are properly secured before startup. Improper con-
nection or disconnection of encoder cables might cause erratic motion of the
AMR during operation. The AMR might rotate uncontrollably during loss of
encoder signals.

Make sure both gearbox cam levers are properly set and both drive wheels
engaged before startup. Improper engagement of only one gearbox might cause
erratic motion of the AMR during operation.
