Depending on the tooling configuration, it could be necessary to place the fixations arms just beside
the bracket for lifting actuator, but the fixation arms must be within 30mm of the bracket for the lifting
actuator to avoid damaging the Tooling beam.
9) Then start lifting the tools which makes the Tooling beam go downwards and make contact to the top
of fixation arms. Proceed until the front wheel is lifted approx. 50mm off the ground.
Before continuing make sure the Robot Tooling beam is resting safely in the
“bed” of both fixation
arms. If that is not the case or in doubt, lower the Robot and adjust. Then check again.
10) At the front of the Robot the belt and hook of the ratchet straps must be placed properly over the
tooling bar without any twisting and the hook can be attached to one of the holes on the fixation
arms, on the other side. Next, tighten the Robot to the platform with the ratchet straps on the fixation
arms.
11) To fix the rear of the Robot, the fixation arms must be in lowered position and pushed as close to the
wheel as possible. Then attach the hook as shown below and tighten.
Ratchet straps
Attach the hook here, alternatively on the
wheel hub if tightening from the other side.
With the belt below this rod, the
ratchet straps will be able to be
untightened easily later.
