C4 Maintenance 7. Joint #3
90 C Series Maintenance Manual Rev.2
7.1 Joint #3 - Replacing the Motor (with a Brake)
The brake is mounted on the Joint #3 to prevent the arm from lowering due to its own weight while the Controller
power is OFF or the motor is OFF status. However, the brake does not work during replacement.
To replace the Joint #3 motor (with a brake), tilt the Arm #3 and press it toward the Arm #2. (See the step (2).)
When pressing the arm, put a cloth or a similar material between the arms to avoid them from contacting. This
also protects the arm surfaces and coatings.
Removal: Joint #3 Motor (with a brake)
1. Turn ON the Controller power.
2. Tilt the Arm #3.
Put a cloth between the Arm #2 and the Arm #3 so that two arms
do not touch each other.
