Remove and Replace Servo Drives Chapter 8
Remove the Servo Drive
You can remove single-axis drives from the panel or any single drive from a
multi-axis configuration by using the same procedure.
Follow these steps to remove Kinetix 5500 servo drives from the panel.
1. Loosen the top and bottom screws of the drive to remove.
Frame 1 and 2 drives have one top and bottom screw. Frame 3 drives
have two top and bottom screws.
2. Grasp the top and bottom of the drive with both hands and pull the
drive straight out and away from the panel, clearing the zero-stack
mounting tabs and cutouts.
Replace the Servo Drive
To replace the servo drive, reverse the steps shown above or refer to Mount
Your Kinetix 5500 Drive on page 60:
• Torque mounting, shield clamp, and ground screws to 2.0 N•m
(17.7 lb•in), max
• Reconnect the feedback connector kit and torque the mounting screws
