Step 5
• Make sure that the mounting surfaces of the servomotor and motor flange are in close contact. If
either of the surfaces is tilting or there is a gap, remove the servomotor and repeat Step 4.
• Fix the servomotor to the motor flange with bolts.
• Tighten the bolts with the tightening torque specified by the servomotor manufacturer.
• Confirm that the centering shaft of the servomotor is correctly fitted into the centering hole of the
motor flange.
• Check that there is no foreign matter adhering to the mounting surface.
• Do not forcibly press down on the motor.
If there is foreign matter adhering to the mounting surface, appropriate installation accuracy cannot be
obtained. It could cause deterioration of performance, such as abnormal noise and vibration, and also
lead to premature damage of the motor.
Forcibly pressing to insert the servomotor could cause damage to the servomotor or reduction gear.
Step 6
• Using the bolt provided at the time of shipping, tighten the clamping bolt of the coupling with the
specified bolt tightening torque. (Reference: Table 5-3 in “5.1.3. Tightening torque”)
After step 5 is completed, perform step 6. If the sequence is wrong, the servomotor or the reduction
gear could be damaged.
Step 7
Insert the cap into the hole of the motor flange.
