CAUTION
The gearbox can contain an excess of pressure that can be hazardous. Open
the oil plug carefully in order to let out the excess pressure.
Action
Run the upper arm to a horizontal position.
IRB 2600:
Turn axis-4 to the calibration position.
IRB 2600ID:
Turn axis-4 to +90° so that the oil plug for
filling is on top.
DANGER
Turn off all:
• electric power supply
• hydraulic pressure supply
• air pressure supply
to the robot, before entering the robot
working area.
WARNING
Handling gearbox oil involves several safety
risks, see Gearbox lubricants (oil or grease)
on page 36.
IRB 2600:
Open the oil plug, tilthouse.
IRB 2600ID:
Open all oil plugs, also for the venting hole.
Refill the gearbox with lubrication oil.
Note
The amount of oil to be filled depends on
the amount previously being drained.
IRB 2600ID:
The venting hole at the bottom needs to be
open to make the oil run into the axis-6 gear.
If oil starts to run out through the venting
hole, refit the oil plug.
If it is difficult to get oil into the axis-6 gear,
the venting hole can also be used for filling
oil into the gear.
Inspect the oil level.
