Unpacking and Inspecting
Before Unpacking
Carefully inspect all shipping crates for evidence of damage during transit. Pay special
attention to tilt and shock indication labels (if they are present) on the exteriors of the con-
tainers. If any damage is indicated, request that the carrier 's agent be present at the time
the container is unpacked.
After Unpacking
Compare the actual items received (not just the packing slip) with your equipment pur-
chase order and verify that you received everything you ordered.
Inspect each item for external damage as it is removed from its container. If any damage is
evident, contact Adept at the number listed in Chapter 1.
Retain all containers and packaging materials. These items will be necessary to settle dam-
age claims or to relocate the robot.
Repacking for Relocation
If you relocate the robot, reverse the installation procedures that follow this section. Reuse
all original packing containers and materials, and follow all safety notes used for installa-
tion. Improper packaging for shipment will void your warranty.
CAUTION: The Adept 550 robot with the inner and outer links fully
extended has a center of gravity beyond its base. If an unmounted Adept
!
550 is fully extended, it may fall and cause substantial damage. Always
fold the links in towards the center if the robot is not mounted.
