panel. If the switch is pressed the robot and the water jet will immediately stop.

Transportation of the robot

Moving the robot

It is important that the use of the robot complies with the safety instructions and warnings in this

chapter. Read this even if you are already familiar with the use of the robot.

If there are other health and safety requirements in the country of use, an appropriate

supplement to this manual will be created to meet these requirements.

•It is not permissible to remove or modify the design of safety devices on the robot and

accessories.

•Only qualified staff are allowed to repair the robot.

During transportation of the robot with a vehicle (for example with a truck or a trailer):

•The robot must only be transported in an upright position, turned on, safely fixed so that the

robot cannot overturn or suffer any other form of mechanical damage.

•If a malfunction is suspected due to a mishap while undergoing transport the robot must be

functionally checked before it is put into use.

•If needed, the robot should be lifted in the chassis.

•During transport, secure the robot by the chassis.

•The robot must only be moved when it’s turned on.

•The robot must only be moved with both hands on the handlebars when the clutch is used.

•Methods for moving the robot must be adapted to the ground and personal capabilities.

•If the ground is steeply inclined (upwards or downwards) the motor must be used, do not use

the clutch or the transport wheel!

Recording (programming) and starting a robot program

Cleaning and maintenance

Risk of overturning

Battery short circuit

Built-in safety devices

The robot has a built-in safety system with several different alarms. If a stopping alarm occurs, the robot will

immediately stop the operation, shut off the water jet and display an alarm text in the operator panel. The

alarm must be acknowledged before the operation can ultimately be restarted.

•Protection against current faults is provided by a fuse on the circuit board.

•Protection against low battery voltage is controlled by the computer and generates an alarm if this

occurs

•Protection against collision during operation is detected by each individual motor and generates an

alarm if the motor does not move as expected.

•Before cleaning, the section must be cleared of humans (except for the person carrying out

the recording) and animals; aisles and pens must be clear of obstacles, doors and gates must

be closed.

•Warning signs must be placed by the entrance of the section during cleaning.

•The person carrying out the recording must use ear defenders, respitory mask and safety

goggles. Other recommended equipment is protective clothing, boots and gloves.

•During recording the operator must keep a safe distance from the moving parts of the robot

and the high-pressure water jet.

•During recording the robot must be manipulated in such a way that the water jet or the

moving parts of the robot are not in contact with sensitive electronics or other sensitive

equipment.

•When using markers these must be firmly fixed and be able to remain in the same position

throughout the cleaning process.

•When using the double nozzle, the automatic wash must be restarted if the water flow is

interrupted. This to ensure that the correct valve in the double nozzle is open.

•Rinse the robot thoroughly after use. Do not use a high-pressure water.

•The batteries must be recharged in a well-ventilated area free of flammable materials.

•During maintenance the robot must be switched off.

•Only qualified personnel are allowed to carry out repairs on the robot.

•Do not transport the robot in the parking position if the ground leans more than 20 degrees

sideways.

•If the tower is turned 90 degrees from the center position and the telescope and the arm are

in their most extended positions, the ground should not lean more than 5 degrees (depending

also on whether the water jet is directed up or down).

•During cleaning behind the robot in the marked area in Figure 3, there is a risk of overturning

that is dependent on the ground and the position of the boom, telescope and arm. If working

in this area the recommendation is to have the telescope in its most retracted position.

•When using the transport wheel, the tower must be centered.

•

To avid short circuits when replacing the batteries, always first remove the connector from the

minus pole of the battery connected to the robot. Consequently, always reconnect this pole

last.

4.General information

This user manual, together with help texts in the operator panel, includes all the information needed for

preparing, making recordings (teaching), managing locations, programs and recipes, performing and ending

a cleaning process. It also includes necessary information on how to use the robot in the best and safest

way.

Short functional description

The cleaning robot obtains its 24 V power from two 12 V lead acid batteries. The robot cleans with high-

pressure water (warm or cold) with or without additives. The water is supplied from an external high-

pressure water supply via a 50 m hose installed on a hose reel that is operated separately by the robot

according to how the robot moves. The cleaning is carried out by a telescopic arm, moveable in all

directions, with a maximum reach of 4015 mm (effective working range including the water jet is 6000 mm).

By using the joystick, you can teach the robot to move and clean in a satisfactory way. After this teaching

operation the robot will be able to carry out the movements on its own as many times as are necessary to

achieve a satisfactory cleaning result.

Starting the robot

The main switch is found on the right-hand side of the operator panel. When the robot is switched on, the

startup process takes about 30 seconds. When the screen in Figure 4 is shown the robot is ready to operate.

Help system

Every screen has a button with a question mark, as seen in Figure 4. When pressing that button, relevant

help texts will be displayed on the screen.

Charging the robot

When charging the batteries, the cleaning robot must be switched off. The batteries cannot be charged

when the robot is on.

The charger must be connected to the robot before it is connected to the wall outlet. When the charger is

connected to the wall outlet only the orange status light should be turned on. See the charger manual for

details.

The cleaning robot shall always be connected to the charger when not used, in order to prolong battery life.

5.Manipulation

Manual mode

Manual mode means using the cleaning robot without a previous teaching process. Manual mode is used

for example when the robot is moved from its storage place to the house to be cleaned. Before moving, the

robot should be turned on. Manual mode is reached from the start screen. When in manual mode, the

cleaning robot can be operated using the buttons on the operator panel or the joystick.

We recommend that you use manual mode to become familiar with the joystick and the different

movements.

Moving the robot

The robot can be manually moved either by manpower or by using the motors for transport. For unpowered

transport, the robot is declutched using the clutch handle on the right-hand side of the handlebar. The

robot can also be manually operated using the transport motor from the operator panel or the joystick.

To make it easier moving or turning the robot, the transport wheel can be used, see Figure 2. This is also

controlled on the manual screen.

Also, take care to follow the instructions in the Safety section.

Joystick

The joystick is connected to the black socket, which can be found under the hood on the rear right-hand

side of the cleaning robot, see Figure 2. The plug must be turned 90 degrees for secure tightening when

connected. The joystick is used to control all motions of the cleaning robot, including turning water on and

off. See Figure 5 for an overview of the joystick.

An overview of the different motions is given in Figure 6.

If the ground is inclined towards or away from you the motor must be used, do not use the

clutch or the transport wheel!

The joystick is needed during the teaching process. The joystick is connected to the cleaning robot

via a six-meter cable, which facilitates the teaching process and unwanted contamination by

manure or collision with the robot’s telescopic arm is avoided.
