A brake is mounted on the motor of Joints #3 and #4 to prevent the shaft from moving
down due to the weight of the end effector while the power to the Controller is OFF or
while the motor is in OFF status (MOTOR OFF).
Move the shaft down to its lower limit before the replacement procedure following the
removal steps.
Joint #4 motor
Removal
(1)
Turn ON the Controller.
(2)
Push down the shaft to its lower limit while pressing the brake release switch. Be
sure to keep enough space and prevent
the end effector hitting any
peripheral
equipment.
The brake release switch is applied to both Joints #3 and Joint #4.
When the brake release switch is pressed, the respective brakes of the Joint #3 and
Joint #4 are released simultaneously.
Be careful of the
shaft falling and rotating while the brake release switch is
being
pressed
because the shaft may be lowered by the weight of an end effector.
(3)
Turn OFF the Controller.
(4)
Remove the
Arm Top Cover.
For details, refer to
Maintenance: 3.1 Arm Top Cover.

At this point, do not cut off a wire tie that
binds the cables to the Duct Plate.
