DANGER!
Turn off all electric power, hydraulic and
pneumatic pressure supplies to the robot!
For Foundry Prime robots: Do not turn off the
air pressure to motors and SMB.
2. Make an overall visual inspection of the cable
harness, in order to detect wear and damage.
3. Check the
connectors at the division point and
at the base.

NOTE!
If the robot is used in a Foundry Prime appli-
cation, check the
cables
for cracks in
insulation.
5. Check that
velcro straps and the mounting
plate
are properly attached to the frame. Also
check the cabling, leading into the lower arm.
Make sure it is attached by the straps and not
damaged.

A certain wear of the hose at the
entrance to the lower arm is natural.
