Transporting the Robot

TRANSPORTING THE ROBOT
Before transporting the robot, remove the robot battery from the robot. The vehicle that you use
to transport the robot should have adequate shock absorption. Vans and cars used for
passengers would be the best. Transporting the robot in a trailer is not recommended because
trailers typically do not have the same level of shock absorption as a car or van. A good rule of
thumb to follow is that if the vehicle is adequate for transporting a computer it should also be
fine for the robot.
Double check that the upper robot is latched and secure. There are two latches. Secure the
robot in transport so that it does not roll around inside your vehicle.
!
CAUTION
If the upper robot is not properly secured before transport, it could move around or tip
over in your vehicle causing damage to the robot.
