6.2 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 in gearboxes. If exposed to heat, for example from ablow torch, the oil will catch fire.• When motors are removed from the robot, the robot will collaps if not properlysupported before motor removal.546 3HAC044266-001 Revision: -© Copyright 2013 ABB.
