The parallelism adjustment affects the maximum height and the counterbalance and must
be performed prior to performing any other adjustment of the arm system.
•
Remove all arm and joint covers so that the adjustment rod is visible (Fig. 1).
•
The adjustment rod must always be parallel with the arm. This can be checked by
measuring at two points as far away from each other as possible but with the same
diameter of the pull rod (Fig. 26). The parallelism must not deviate more than 0.6 mm.
The measurements must be performed with the arm in the uppermost and lowermost
positions. If not parallel loosen the locking nuts and adjust by turning the pull rod.
