Note
Only valid for Type C and Type D!
The basic method to change oil in a suspended robot of this type, when still
mounted in a suspended position, is to fill the same amount of oil that was
drained.
The only way to inspect the oil level after some repair work, is to make a note
how much oil was drained and to refill with the same amount. If in doubt, the
suspended robot must be dismantled from its inverted position and the oil being
inspected with the robot in a floor mounted position.
Action
DANGER
Turn off all:
•

•

•

to the robot, before entering the robot working
area.
WARNING

risks, see

CAUTION
The gearbox can contain an excess of pressure
that can be hazardous. Open the oil plug care-
fully in order to let out the excess pressure.
Verify that the hose of the oil change equipment
is clean and then fit the quick connection to the
oil plug for filling.
