3-1 Attaching the upper cover (B10/B14/B14H)
On robot models having a long stroke, a slider travel guide (U groove) is provided inside the
upper cover. The slider must be aligned with this U groove when attaching the upper cover.
CAUTION
If the slider and upper cover alignment is poor, the slider may wear out prematurely.
Insert the slider into the U groove correctly so that the slider is not worn away or
damaged by the edge of the upper cover.
1) Turn off the controller.
2) Insert the slider into the U groove provided along the center of the upper cover, while holding
the upper cover in parallel with the robot movement axis.
3) Lightly tighten the four screws to temporarily secure the upper cover, move the slider table
from the motor side all the way to the non-motor side, and fully tighten the screws on the non-
motor side. Then move the slider table back to the motor side and fully tighten the two screws
on the motor side to secure the upper cover.
4) Move the slider table by hand to check that it travels along the upper cover smoothly.
