OPERATING MANUAL

11.2 The maintenance position of the

robot

This section describes how to place the robot in

maintenance position.

Before Robot Gun Mount T3 and the cable assembly can

be mounted, the robot must be placed in maintenance

position.

For correct attachment of the robot mount and the

cable assembly, set the 4th axis = neutral position, 5th axis =

inclined by 10°, and 6th axis = neutral position.

Figure 4: Overview of the robot axes

For standard welding positions, we recommend the

following axis positions for the mounting of the hose

assembly.

Figure 5: Standard axis positions

For determining the optimal position of the wire feeder

at extreme welding positions, we recommend the follow-

ing axis positions:

• A6 > ± 100°

• A5 > ± 90°

• A4 > ± 100°

This procedure avoids putting extreme stress on the hose

assembly.

Proceed as follows:

1. Unscrew the wire feeder (1).

2. Align the hose assembly (2) in the predetermined

direction, and mount it in the gun mount.
