Install the
top
X-axis gear racks as follows.
.
a. The Half Rack, Load Position is already installed in the left parking module.
b. Lay down the standard full gear racks, from left to right, starting with the left parking module/
control module. The ends of the racks snap together to form a tight connection. Snap each one
into the previous one as you go.
c. Lay down the Full Gear Rack, Load Position, between the right parking module and the module
to its left.
NOTE
: The robot loader bracket locator has two cutouts into which two tabs in the
gear rack must fit. The robot loader bracket and bracket locator should not be screwed down
tightly, so that you can slide them left and right. Adjust the position of the loader bracket and
locator until the rack tabs fit into the cutouts. You may need to loosen some or all of the six
screws that secure the loader bracket and locator (see
Figure 9
on 27 for screw locations).
d. The Half Rack, End Position gear racks are already installed in the right parking module, unless
you are adding additional modules onto an existing system. In that case, you need to install the
lay down the Half Rack, End Position gear rack now.
e. Make sure that all top gear racks are snapped together and lie flat against the rack support.
f.
In the right parking module, make sure standard rack, load position engages the notch in the
loader bracket.
g. Install the left-most Screw C in the control module first. The screw goes up through the left-most
hole in the underside of the rack support into the left-most threaded screw hole in the bottom of
the rack. See
Figure 8
.
h. Insert (stage) the remaining Screw C’s in all the top gear racks, from left to right. The screws
go up through the slots in the underside of the top rack support into the threaded screw holes
in the bottom of the gear racks. Use three screws for half racks and four screws for full racks.
See
Figure 8
.
i.
Tighten all the screws from left to right.
Note
It is recommended that you position all the gear racks on the rack supports
before screwing any of them down.
