Maintaining and Supporting Baxter

Powering Down Baxter

1. Clear the area around the robot.
2. If performing maintenance, grab the training cuff or turn the knob to cause the
head to move to the side. (Pressing the Navigator button may run or reset a task,
so it's safer and simpler to grab the cuff or turn the knob.) Moving the head to the
side makes it easier to remove the front cover. If the robot does not have power,
carefully move the head manually.
3. Press the white power button on the robot pedestal.
The shutdown process is complete when the green and yellow lights around the
head shut off.
Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet/power source.

Maintaining Baxter

Cleaning Baxter

To clean Baxter, periodically wipe it down with a clean, damp cloth.

Replacing the Air Filters

Check the Baxter air filters at least every six months, and replace them as necessary. Baxter has
two air filters, one on each side of the torso.
• To remove a filter, use a 2 mm hex key to remove the two screws from the air
filter; remove the filter.
• To install a filter, use a 2 mm hex key to install the two screws and attach the filter
to the side of the torso.
