7.7 Ceiling--mounted manipulators
Caution!
A manipulator configured for the floor mounting position may not be installed in
the ceiling mounting position, as this is liable to cause lubrication problems on
axis 1 due to the different quantities of oil in gear unit A1!
Information!
Observe Section 7.1!
This description only applies to ceiling--mounted robots with mounting variant 2 (Section 3.2).
For installation on the ceiling, the manipulator can be transported in a transport frame -- al-
ready in the correct orientation. It is removed from this frame by fork lift truck and brought
to the site of installation (Fig. 62).

an exchange) is as follows:
(1) Check that the locating pins (Fig. 59/2) are undamaged and fitted securely.
Notice!
Damaged locating pins must be replaced by new ones.
Warning!
The manipulator must be in the transport position (Fig. 63).
