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. Fit the additional mechanical stop to the
frame according to the figure Mechanical
stops, axis 1 on page 86.
Tightening torque: 120 Nm.
3. Note! The software working range limitations
must be re-defined to correspond to the
changes in the mechanical limitations of the
working range.
How to define the range of movement in
RobotWare 4.0 is detailed in User’s
guide - S4Cplus, chapter System
Parameters - topic Manipulator.
The system parameters that must be
changed in RobotWare 5.0 (Upper joint
bound and Lower joint bound) are further
detailed in Technical reference manual -
System parameters.

WARNING!
If the mechanical stop is deformed after a
hard collision, it must be replaced!
