Note) The insertion position given in the table indicates the insertion position for the operating range change stopper. (Refer to Fig. 3-6.)

The operating range is changed with robot arm settings and parameter settings.

(1)Setting the robot arm

1)Move the upper arm to the posture as shown in Fig. 3-6by jog operation.

2)Turn OFF the controller power.

3)By referring to Table 3-2and Fig. 3-6, insert the two stoppers (M10 x 20) used to change the movement range of J1 axis at the angular position to be changed, and fix securely by applying a clamping torque of 70 N ・ m to 86 N ・ m.

CAUTION Do not remove the stopper for the standard specification of ± 170 degree shown in Fig. 3-6.
