Cover Removal Procedure
1. Turn off main power to the controller and power chassis.
2. Turn off the air supply to the robot. Clean the exterior of the outer link thoroughly to
remove any dust or particles that might fall inside the robot when the cover is removed.
3. Unscrew the collar nut on the top of the outer link. See Figure 8-8.
4. Remove 2 screws and nylon washers on the top of the outer link.
5. Remove 2 screws (one on each side) at the front of the outer link. Make sure the O-ring
on each screw stays in place and is not lost.
6. For the 8 screws along the side of the cover (4 on each side; see Figure 8-8), loosen only
1 to 2 turns, just enough to loosen the inside clamp nuts. You do not want to completely
remove the screws. See the label on the side of the outer link cover.
CAUTION: Do not loosen these screws any more than 2
turns, because the special clamp nut on the inside of the
cover might come loose and fall inside the robot.

7. When all 8 screws are loose (but not removed), lift the cover up and slide it back along
the cable track and out of the way. Protect the cover with a soft cloth or other padding
material so the cover does not get scratched. See Figure 8-9.
