6.3 Scrapping of robotImportant when scrapping the robotDANGERWhen a robot is disassembled while being scrapped, it is very important toremember the following before disassembling starts, in order to prevent injuries:• Always remove all batteries from the robot. If a battery is exposed to heat,for example from a blow torch, it will explode.• Always remove all oil/grease in gearboxes. If exposed to heat, for examplefrom a blow torch, the oil/grease will catch fire.• When motors are removed from the robot, the robot will collapse if it is notproperly supported before the motor is removed.Product manual - IRB 120 2533HAC035728-001 Revision: N© Copyright 2009-2017 ABB.
