Installing Outer Link Cover

1. Check the cover O-ring around the inner groove of the cover to make sure it is in place

and not crimped before installing the cover.

If the O-ring is worn or damaged, replace it.

The O-ring is Adept p/n 06356-000.

2. Hold the cover over the outer link and check to see that the clamp nuts attached to the 8

side screws are positioned so they will slip into place when the cover is lowered onto
the outer link.

3. Slowly lower the cover onto the outer link, making sure the O-ring does not fall out or

get pinched as the cover presses down to make the seal.

NOTE: As you lower the cover onto the outer link, make sure the 8 side screws are
pushed all the way in, so the clamp nuts will slide into the correct position.

4. Install the two screws and nylon washers at the top of the outer link and tighten to 5 in-

lb (0.56 N

·

m).

5. Install the two screws (check for O-ring on screw) near the front of the outer link and

tighten to 10 in-lb (1.1 N

·

m).

6. Tighten the 8 side screws to 10 in-lb (1.1 N

·

m). Be careful to not over-tighten. Begin with

the two screws (one on each side) at the back of the outer link, then move forward to the
next two, and so on, until all eight are tightened. This pattern is recommended to
achieve a secure fit around the cover.

7. Install the collar nut and tighten until secure.

8. Remember to turn on the compressed air supply to the system before restarting the

robot.
