The Spider Legs are considered part of the field structure, and are covered under Rule <G33>. The Spider Legs may be pushed to one side, from the front, or from the bottom, to stabilize them during the process of hanging a game piece. However, they may not be grasped, held, or severely restrained without violating this rule.

I believe they will not allow you to just go forwards and backwards into the rack for the duration of the match, but this would be a useful question to submit.

And <G33> says

If the referee determines that the TEAM is disregarding the warning, their ROBOT will be disabled for the remainder of the match.

They've already said we can push as long as we don't break. The Q&A was only referring to how much constraint could be put on the spider to be considered grasping. And I can hardly believe that "disruption" would mean putting the spider into motion, else no one would ever be able to nudge it, even accidentally.
