CI. ROTOTILT
1. Lubrication
a. Clean the grease fitting, located in a hole in the side of the suppressor
housing. Also, clean the swivel pin fitting, located on the side of the swivel
stud 130535.
b. Connect grease gun to fitting, and pump until grease exits around the top, or
bottom, of the swivel.
c. Connect grease gun to swivel pin fitting, and pump until grease exits around
the ends of the pin bore.
2. Bearing Adjustment
a. Lay ROBOVIBE on the ground, with the swivel grease fitting up.
b. Remove the Yoke from the swivel stud, by removing swivel pin 130541.
c. Rotate the swivel stud to align the locking bolt with the hole in the
suppressor. Loosen the swivel nut 130537 locking bolt 130849, by inserting
a ½” hex key through the hole in the suppressor side, and unscrewing
this .625-11UNC X 5.00 Lg SHCS.
d. The hex key must remain in the locking bolt SHCS, as this is the only way to
prevent the swivel nut from turning.
e. With the hex key in place, turn the swivel stud clockwise, to tighten the
swivel nut. This will pre-load the swivel bearings.
f. Remove the hex key and rotate the swivel stud by hand. The stud should
be difficult, but not impossible, to turn by hand. If the adjustment is not
correct, repeat steps “4” and “5” above.
g. When adjustment is correct, re-tighten the swivel nut locking bolt to 230 Ft-
Lbs (32.3Kg-M).
