Mounting the cable assembly

NOTĂ!
In order to adjust the wire feeder position to the cable assembly length, it must be
mounted on an adjustable support with a possible movement of ±2-3 cm (±1 in.) to
the back and to the front. The length of the cable assembly must be determined
from the centred mounting position of the wire feeder.
1. Move the robot arm into a completely straight position, see illustration below. Make
sure that (1) axis 6 (rotation around the torch axis) is in 0° position.
2. Move the feeder (3) completely to the back in order to create space for inserting the
cable assembly. If it is not possible to move the feeder sufficiently, it should be
removed from the robot.
