Action
Decide which calibration routine to use for
calibrating the robot.
• Reference calibration. External cable
packages (DressPack) and tools can
stay fitted on the robot.
• Fine calibration. All external cable
packages (DressPack) and tools
must be removed from the robot.
If the robot is to be calibrated with refer-
ence calibration:
Find previous reference values for the axis
or create new reference values. These val-
ues are to be used after the repair proced-
ure is completed, for calibration of the ro-
bot.
If no previous reference values exist, and
no new reference values can be created,
then reference calibration is not possible.
If the robot is to be calibrated with fine
calibration:
Remove all external cable packages
(DressPack) and tools from the robot.
Note
Robots with protection type Foundry Plus or Foundry Prime require special repair
routines to maintain the tightness level, in addition to the procedure below,
described in Replacement of the motor axis 6 (Foundry Plus) on page
Action
Decide which calibration routine to use, and take
actions accordingly prior to beginning the repair
procedure.
Move the robot to a position where the motor in
axis 6 is pointed straight up. This position enables
the motor to be replaced without draining the gear
oil, which in turn saves time.

Note
Follow the instructions given in the refer-
ence calibration routine on the FlexPendant
to create reference values.
Creating new values requires possibility to
move the robot.
