being fully charged will permanently damage the battery.)

3. Remove batteries from operator's transmitter and receiver.

will extend the life and help insure proper operation.
5. Inspect robot for loose bolts or any additional maintenance that may need to be done.
6. Clean the body and top as per instructions in maintenance section. (If robot is stored
with a dirty body it may be harder to clean at a later date, as stains may become
permanent.)
7. Storing your robot with a dust cover on it will keep the robot clean and protect the body
from scratches. It will also keep ultra-violet light from affecting the ABS plastic body.

Storing the robot in a safe place will prevent scratches and extend the life.
9. After storing the robot for any length of time always test the robot well in advance of any
scheduled activity as it is impossible to anticipate problems. This will ensure time to
correct the problem.
