When reinstalling the motor and suspension:

* Torque the motor's 4 screws to 20 N·m.
* Gently pull both motor cables away from the motor so that the cables are held tightly along the suspension beam.
* Ensure that both cables are routed along the top face of the suspension beam, and are laid out so that the thinner cable sits on top of the thicker cable.
* Insert an 11" black cable tie into the first hole in the suspension beam (the hole closest to the motor) and tie it around the cables as they are being held.
* Ensure that the cable tie is tightened as much as possible by hand, that both cables remain above the suspension beam, and the thinner cable remains on top of the thicker cable.
* Insert another 11" black cable tie into the second hole in the suspension beam (the hole closest to the center) and tie it around the cables.
* Ensure that the cable tie is tightened as much as possible by hand, that both cables remain above the suspension beam, and the thinner cable remains on top of the thicker cable.
* Cut off the extra length of both cable ties.
* Repeat above steps for each of the remaining three motors.

* Torque the wheel's 6 screws to 20 N·m.
* Torque the suspension beam's nuts to 30 N·m.
Torque these slowly, in a star pattern.

4. Inspect the tire treads for excessive wear of punctures.
5. Inspect the drivetrain for loose screws.
6. Inspect the drivetrain for any branches or debris lodged in robot's motors or suspension.
7. Inspect the air filter.
8. Clean any optical sensors.
9. Turn the robot on, and check the battery's State-of-charge.
10. Disconnect the battery charger from the robot.
11. Check that all of the Emergency Stop devices are functioning, including the _Rear Charge Port Door_, and the optional _Wireless Emergency Stop Transmitter_.
12. Check that the robot has connected to your worksite's wireless network.
13. Confirm that the robot computer has enough storage for any ROS bags that you plan to acquire during the robot's mission.
7. Inspect the drivetrain for damage to any of the motor cables or to the cable ties that are used to secure the motor cables to the suspension beam. Check that there is clearance between the motor cables and the tires.

- The Status Lights are functioning correctly by pressing an Emergency Stop button and checking for the
Emergency Stop light pattern.
- The robot was not damaged during the last operation.
- The cable ties used to secure all four sets of motor cables are not broken (there should be two cable ties on each motor's cables).
- All four sets of the motor cables are not touching the adjacent wheel, and are secured by cable ties in a way that would prevent this from happening.
- The motor cables have not been damaged due to contact with the wheels.
