inserting.
Ensure that the Status Display panel gasket is in place between the panel and the
robot body.

Route the "diag" cable AWAY from the iCS-ECAT fan inside the robot base.
Be careful not to hit the top of the amber lamp with the back of the battery

Apply Loctite 222 in each bolt hole, not on the bolts themselves.
Ensure that the Status Display panel gasket is in place between the panel and the
robot body.
Ensure that a washer seal is in place under each bolt.
Torque the bolts to 1.1 N·m.
