Place the stop at the base, with the guiding pin in
the casted groove. Turn the stop until the holes
align with the groove.
The stop can be mounted in either direction, result-
ing in differences in the working range.

Also see the figure Illustration,
mechanical stop, axis 1 on
page 102.
Drill two holes in the casted groove, with guidance
from the circular and the elliptical hole.
3
Drill the holes through 10.2 mm.
If drilling in a stiffening rib, drill depth must be min.
30 mm.
Cut the threads M12.4
If cutting in a stiffening rib, thread depth must be
min. 23 mm.
Fit the stop to the base without tightening the bolts.5
How to release the holding brake
of the axis motor is detailed in
section Manually releasing the
brakes on page 66.
Turn axis 1 manually and check the working area
between the stops.

2 pcs/stop: M12 x 40, tightening
torque: 85 Nm.
Tighten the bolts.7
The system parameters that must
be changed (Upper joint bound
and Lower joint bound) are de-
scribed in Technical reference
manual - System parameters.
Adjust the software working range limitations (sys-
tem parameter configuration) to correspond to the
mechanical limitations.
