DANGER
Never remove both the axis-2 and axis-3 gearboxes at the same time. One of
the gearboxes must stay fitted when the other one is replaced. The complete
arm system will loose its connection to the frame and thereby be a great security
risk.
Note
The attachment screws that secure the gearboxes, are arranged in three areas,
with 15 screws in each area. It will not be possible to reach all screws with the
robot in only one position. Removal and refitting must be performed with the
robot in two different positions described in the procedures.
Action
Make sure that the position of the robot has
not been changed. Correct position is cal-
ibration position.
Action
Use caution and lift the gearbox up and let
it rest on its side.
CAUTION
Make sure the gearbox is resting in a stable
position.
