Mounting Procedure from Below the Frame
The Adept Quattro s650 robot provides four mounting pads. Each pad has one M20
threaded hole that can be used with either an M20 bolt, or as an M16 (5/8 in.) clearance
hole. The robot can be mounted either on top of the frame pads, using the bottom surface
of the robot base pads, or to the bottom of the frame pads, using the top surface of the
robot base pads.
The Adept Quattro s650 robot can be mounted from the beneath the mounting frame
using a forklift. Use a padded board as a support under the robot base. The robot base can
be rotated by hand, once mounted on the lifting pad on a forklift, when needed for
clearing obstacles.
Mounting to Bottom of Frame Pads
1. Remove all lag bolts from the mounting pads before lifting the robot base.
2. Lift the robot and position it directly under the mounting frame.
3. Slowly lift the robot while aligning the M20 holes in the robot mounting pads
with the holes in the frame mounting pads.
4. Lift the robot until the top of the robot base mounting pads are touching the
bottom of the frame mounting pads.
5. Follow the instructions in “Install Mounting Hardware” on page 44 .
Mounting to Top of Frame Pads
1. Remove all lag bolts from the mounting pads before lifting the robot base.
2. Lift the robot so the mounting pads are directly under the mounting pads of the
frame.
3. Slowly lift the robot while rotating it slightly, so that the four mounting pads are
raised past the frame mounting pads without touching.
4. When the robot base mounting pads are above the top surface of the frame
mounting pads, rotate the robot base so the M20 threaded holes in the robot base
mounting pads align with the holes in the frame mounting pads.
5. Slowly lower the robot base while aligning the M20 holes in the robot mounting
pads with the holes in the frame mounting pads.
6. Continue lowering the robot base until the bottom surface of the robot base
mounting pads are touching the top surface of the frame mounting pads.
7. Follow the instructions in “Install Mounting Hardware” on page 44 .
Install Mounting Hardware
NOTE: When mounting the robot, note the following:
• The base casting of the robot is aluminum and can be dented if bumped
against a harder surface.
• Verify that the robot is mounted squarely before tightening the mounting
bolts.
• All mounting hardware is user-supplied.
