Securing the lower arm
The procedure below details how to secure the lower arm by fitting the fixture to the robot.
Action Note/Illustration
1.
DANGER!
Turn off all electric power, hydraulic and pneumatic
pressure supplies to the robot!
For Foundry Prime robots: Do not turn off the air
pressure to motors and SMB.
2. Remove any load or equipment fitted to the upper
arm or turning disk.
3. Move the robot to the calibration position. The upper
arm can be directed in three different ways, shown in
the figure to the right.
The lowered position, as in figure A, is
recommended as it gives the least load on the tool.

on axis 2 (not stock equipment), these must be
removed at this point.
The attachment holes of the mechanical stops are
used to attach the fixture.
5. Remove the locking screw from the fixture, where it
is attached.
Shown in the figure Fixture, lower
arm on page 306.
Art. no. of the fixture is specified in
Required equipment on page 306.
6. Secure the lower arm to the frame by inserting the
locking screw into a specific attachment hole
through the frame, into the lower arm.
Shown in the figure Attachment
points, robot on page 305.
