Mounting the Robot
1. Position the robot under the mounting frame.
The pallet will not fit in most frames, so the robot will need to be unstrapped from the
pallet and moved manually.
2. Put nylon slings through the six lifting slots. See the following figure.

3. Take up the slack in the slings.
4. Lift the robot up to the mounting pads on the frame.
5. Mount the robot with 3 M12 x 1.75 screws. Mounting screws are user-supplied; the
length is determined by your frame design.
The screws should be stainless or zinc-plated steel.
Lock washers are not needed, as the robot base has spring-lock Heli-Coil
6. Use an external-tooth star washer, under one of the mounting screw heads, to ground
the robot base to the frame.
If the frame is painted where the star washer makes contact with it, use a ring terminal
under the star washer, and connect the other end of the wire from the terminal to a
suitable grounding surface on the frame.
If the frame is not painted where the M12 screw makes contact with it, you do not need
to use a ring terminal - just put an external-tooth star washer under the mounting screw
head.
7. Tighten all mounting screws to 61 N-m (45 ft-lbf).
