1.4.7 WARNING - Safety risks during work with gearbox lubricants (oil or grease)
Elimination/Action
Description
Warning
Make sure not to overfill the
gearbox when filling it with oil or
grease!
Overfilling of gearbox lubricant
can lead to internal over-pres-
sure inside the gearbox which in
turn may:
•
damage seals and gas-
kets
•
completely press out
seals and gaskets
•
prevent the robot from
moving freely.
xx0100000002
Do not overfill
After filling, verify that the level
is correct.
When filling gearbox oil, do not
mix different types of oil unless
specified in the instructions. Al-
ways use the type of oil specified
by the manufacturer!
Mixing types of oil may cause
severe damage to the gearbox.
xx0100000002
Do not mix types of oil
When changing gearbox oil, first
run the robot for a time to heat
up the oil.

After filling, verify that the level
is correct.
The specified amount of oil or
grease is based on the total
volume of the gearbox. When
changing the lubricant, the
amount refilled may differ from
the specified amount, depending
on how much has previously
been drained from the gearbox.
xx0100000004
Specified amount de-
pends on drained

When draining the oil make sure
that as much oil as possible is
drained from the gearbox. The
reason for this is to drain as
much oil sludge and metal chips
as possible from the gearbox.
The magnetic oil plugs will take
care of any remaining metal
chips.

Risk of tipping
If the robot is not fastened to the foundation while moving the arm, the robot is not
stable in the whole working area. Moving the arm will displace the center of gravity,
which may cause the robot to tip over.
The shipping position is the most stable position.
Do not change the robot position before securing it to the foundation!

2.4 Restricting the working range
2.4.1 Axes with restricted working range
General
When installing the robot, make sure that it can move freely within its entire working
space. If there is a risk that it may collide with other objects, its working space
should be limited.
The working range of the following axes may be restricted:
•
Axis 1, hardware (mechanical stop).
This section describes how to install hardware that restricts the working range.
Note
Adjustments must also be made in the robot configuration software (system
parameters). References to relevant manuals are included in the installation
procedures.

2.4 Restricting the working range
2.4.1 Axes with restricted working range
General
When installing the robot, make sure that it can move freely within its entire working
space. If there is a risk that it may collide with other objects, its working space
should be limited.
The working range of the following axes may be restricted:
•
Axis 1, hardware (mechanical stop).
This section describes how to install hardware that restricts the working range.
Note
Adjustments must also be made in the robot configuration software (system
parameters). References to relevant manuals are included in the installation
procedures.

Inspecting the transparent oil plugs
The gearboxes are equipped with transparent plugs, through which oil leakage
from the hubs can be detected. If an oil leakage is detected, remove the hub and
replace the defective part (radial sealing or o-ring).
Note
If only a few drops of oil are detected, is not necessarily a sign of an oil leakage.
A few drops of oil inside can normally be released from the hub. But if oil
increases, this is not the case.
