3.2
Mounting Procedures for Manipulator Base

The manipulator should be firmly mounted on a base plate or foundation
strong enough to support the manipulator and withstand repulsion forces
during acceleration and deceleration.
Construct a solid foundation with the appropriate thickness to withstand
maximum repulsion forces of the manipulator referring to Table 3-1
"Manipulator Repulsion Force and Torque".
A base plate flatness must be kept at 0.5 mm or less: insufficient flatness
of installation surface may deform the manipulator shape and affect its
functional abilities. Mount the manipulator base as instructed in section
3.2.1 Mounting Example.

3.2 Mounting Procedures for Manipulator Base
Mounting Example
For the first process, anchor the base plate firmly to the ground. The base
plate should be rugged and durable to prevent shifting of the manipulator
or the mounting fixture. It is recommend to prepare a base plate of 40 mm
or more thick, and anchor bolts of M16 or larger size.
The manipulator base is tapped for four mounting holes; securely fix the
manipulator base to the base plate with four hexagon head bolts M16
(50 mm long is recommended).
Next, fix the manipulator base to the base plate. Tighten the hexagon
head bolts and anchor bolts firmly so that they will not work loose during
the operation.
Refer to Fig. 3-2 Mounting the Manipulator on Base Plate.

9 Maintenance and Inspection

9.1 Inspection Schedule
Maintenance and Inspection
DANGER
Maintenance and inspection must be performed by specified

personnel.
Failure to observe this caution may result in electric shock or injury.
For disassembly or repair, contact your Yaskawa representative.
Do not remove the motor, and do not release the brake.
Failure to observe these safety precautions may result in death or

serious injury from unexpected turning of the manipulator's arm.
WARNING
Before maintenance or inspection, be sure to turn the main power

supply OFF, and put up a warning sign. (ex. DO NOT TURN THE
POWER ON.)
Failure to observe this warning may result in electric shock or injury.
CAUTION
The battery pack must be connected before removing detection

connector when maintenance and inspection.
Failure to observe this caution may result in the loss of home position
data.
9.1
Inspection Schedule
Proper inspections are essential not only to assure that the mechanism
will be able to function for a long period, but also to prevent malfunctions
and assure safe operation. Inspection intervals are classified into six
levels as shown in Table 9-2 "Inspection Items" on page 9-2.
In Table 9-2, the inspection items are categorized by three types of
operations: operations which can be performed by personnel authorized
by the user, operations to be performed by trained personnel, and
operations to be performed by service company personnel. Only specified
personnel shall perform the inspection work.
The inspection interval depends on the total servo

operation time.
NOTE
The following inspection schedule is based on the case

where the manipulator is used for arc welding application.
If the manipulator is used for other application or if it is
used under special conditions, a case-by-case
examination is required.
The inspection may be conducted at shorter intervals if the
manipulator is used very frequently for the application
such as handling; in this case, contact your Yaskawa
representative.

9.3
Notes on Grease Replenishment/Exchange Procedures

Make sure to follow the instructions listed below at grease replenishment/
exchange. Failure to observe the following notes may result in damage to
motor and speed reducer.
If grease is added without removing the plug/screw from
the grease exhaust port, the grease will leak inside a
motor or an oil seal of a speed reducer will come off, which
may result in damage to the motor. Make sure to remove
the plug/screw.
NOTE
Do not install a joint, a hose, etc. to the grease exhaust

port. Failure to observe this instruction may result in
damage to the motor due to coming off of an oil seal.
Make sure to use a grease pump to inject grease. Set air
supply pressure to the grease pump at 0.3 MPa or less,
and the grease injection rate at 8 g/s or less.
Make sure to fill hoses, which are joined to the grease
inlet, with grease beforehand to prevent air from intruding
into the speed reducer.
