General To secure high uptime it is important that the IRB 8700 is cleaned regularly. The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the manipulator works. Different cleaning methods are allowed depending on the type of protection of the IRB 8700. Note Always verify the protection type of the robot before cleaning. Oil spills Oil spills from gearboxes Use the following procedure if any oil spills are detected that can be suspected to originate from a gearbox. 1 Inspect that the oil level in the suspected gearbox is according to the recommendations, see Inspection activities on page 110 . 2 Write down the oil level. 3 Inspect the oil level again after, for example, 6 months. 4 If the oil level is decreased then replace the gearbox. Oil spills discolors painted surfaces Oil spills on painted surfaces of the robot can result in discoloration. Note After all repair and maintenance work involving oil, always wipe the robot clean from all surplus oil. Dos and don'ts! This section specifies some special considerations when cleaning the robot. Always! • Always use cleaning equipment as specified! Any other cleaning equipment may shorten the life of the robot. • Always check that all protective covers are fitted to the robot before cleaning!

General To secure high uptime it is important that the IRB 8700 is cleaned regularly. The frequency of cleaning depends on the environment in which the manipulator works. Different cleaning methods are allowed depending on the type of protection of the IRB 8700. Note Always verify the protection type of the robot before cleaning. Oil spills Oil spills from gearboxes Use the following procedure if any oil spills are detected that can be suspected to originate from a gearbox. 1 Inspect that the oil level in the suspected gearbox is according to the recommendations, see Inspection activities on page 110 . 2 Write down the oil level. 3 Inspect the oil level again after, for example, 6 months. 4 If the oil level is decreased then replace the gearbox. Oil spills discolors painted surfaces Oil spills on painted surfaces of the robot can result in discoloration. Note After all repair and maintenance work involving oil, always wipe the robot clean from all surplus oil. Dos and don'ts! This section specifies some special considerations when cleaning the robot.

Note Action To avoid contamination, let a new bearing remain in its wrapping until it is time for fitting. 1 Ensure that the parts included in the bearing fitting are free from burrs, grinding waste, and other contamination. Cast components must be free of foundry sand. 2 Bearing rings, inner rings, and roller elements must not be subjec- ted to direct impact. The roller elements must not be exposed to any stresses during the assembly work. 3 Assembly of tapered bearings Follow the preceding instructions for the assembly of the bearings when mounting a tapered bearing on the robot. In addition to those instructions, the following procedure must be carried out to enable the roller elements to adjust to the correct position against the race flange. Note Action Tension the bearing gradually until the recommended pre-tension is achieved. Note The roller elements must be rotated a specified number of turns before pre- tensioning is carried out and also rotated during the pre-tensioning sequence. 1 Make sure the bearing is properly aligned as this will directly affect the durab- ility of the bearing. 2 Greasing of bearings The bearings must be greased after assembly according to the following instructions: • The bearings must not be completely filled with grease. However, if space is available beside the bearing fitting, the bearing may be totally filled with grease when mounted, as excessive grease will be pressed out from the bearing when the robot is started.

If scratches or damage are found, the seal must be replaced since it may result in future leakage. 2 Article number is specified in Equipment on page193 . Lubricate the seal with grease just before fitting. (Not too early - there is a risk of dirt and foreign particles adhering to the seal.) 3 Fill 2/3 of the space between the dust tongue and sealing lip with grease. The rubber coated external diameter must also be greased, unless otherwise specified. Mount the seal correctly with a mounting tool. 4 Never hammer directly on the seal as this may result in leakage.

Action Check the flange surfaces. They must be even and free from pores. 1 It is easy to check flatness using a gauge on the fastened joint (without sealing com- pound). If the flange surfaces are defective, the parts may not be used because leakage could occur. Clean the surfaces properly in accordance with the recommendations of ABB. 2 Distribute the sealing compound evenly over the surface, preferably with a brush. 3 Tighten the screws evenly when fastening the flange joint. 4 O-rings The following procedure describes how to fit o-rings. Note Action Ensure that the correct o-ring size is used. 1 Defective o-rings may not be used. Check the o-ring for surface defects, burrs, shape accuracy, and so on. 2 Defective o-rings may not be used. Check the o-ring grooves. 3 The grooves must be geometrically correct and should be free of pores and contamination. Lubricate the o-ring with grease. 4 Tighten the screws evenly while assembling. 5 194 Product manual - IRB 8700 3HAC052853-001 Revision: D © Copyright 2015-2017 ABB.

4.2.3 Mounting instructions for seals General This section describes how to mount different types of seals onto the robot. Equipment Note Article number Equipment, etc. Used to lubricate the seals. 3HAB3537-1 Grease Rotating seals The procedure below describes how to fit rotating seals. CAUTION Please observe the following before commencing any assembly of seals: • Protect the sealing surfaces during transport and mounting. • Keep the seal in its original wrappings or protect it well before actual mounting. • The fitting of seals and gears must be carried out on clean workbenches. • Use a protective sleeve for the sealing lip during mounting, when sliding over threads, keyways, etc. Note Action Check the seal to ensure that: • The seal is of the correct type (provided with cutting edge). • There is no damage to the sealing edge (feel with a fingernail). 1 Inspect the sealing surface before mounting. If scratches or damage are found, the seal must be replaced since it may result in future leakage. 2 Article number is specified in Equipment on page193 . Lubricate the seal with grease just before fitting. (Not too early - there is a risk of dirt and foreign particles adhering to the seal.) 3 Fill 2/3 of the space between the dust tongue and sealing lip with grease. The rubber coated external diameter must also be greased, unless otherwise specified. Mount the seal correctly with a mounting tool. 4 Never hammer directly on the seal as this may result in leakage.
