3.5 Mounting the Robot
7. Slowly lower the robot while aligning the base and the tapped mounting holes in the
mounting surface.
NOTE: The base casting of the robot is aluminum and can easily be dented if
bumped against a harder surface.
8. Install the user-supplied mounting bolts and washers. Tighten bolts to the torque spe-
cified in the following table.
Verify that the robot is mounted squarely (will not rock back and forth) before tightening
the mounting bolts.
WARNING: PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE RISK
!
The center of mass of the robot may cause the robot to fall over if the robot is
not secured with the mounting bolts.
NOTE: Check the tightness of the mounting bolts one week after initial install-
ation, and then recheck every 6 months. See Periodic Maintenance Schedule on
page 103 for periodic maintenance.
