Installation
(1)
To attach the upper
bellows, move the shaft to its lower limit.
To attach the lower bellows, move the shaft to its upper limit.
To move the shaft up/down, press and hold the brake release switch.
Be sure to keep enough space and prevent the
end effector
hitting any peripheral
equipment.
LS3:
The brake release switch affects only Joint #3. When the brake release switch
is pressed, the Joint #3 brake is released.
Be careful of the shaft while the brake release switch is being pressed
because
the shaft may be lowered by the weight of an end effector.
LS6:
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.

The smaller joint must be attached to the end
face side of the shaft.
Attach the mounting part of the bellows
until
the end touches the
cylindrical part of the cover.
Then, secure them with clamp bands.
