Mounting the Robot

Overview

There are two ways of proceeding for handling and mounting of the robot. Study both ways of proceeding and determine which one would be appropriate for your environment.

Installing by Forklift Truck

WARNING
	FALLING LOADS Drive slowly and carefully with the forklift truck. Do not carry out any sudden steering movements. Exercise care when initiating height adjustments of the forklift truck loading platform. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Step	Action
1	Using a forklift truck, lift the robot and the pallet into the enclosure.
2	Fasten the robot to the frame by using the three provided threaded holes (1). Tightening torque and size of the threaded holes: At VRKP0 / VRKP1: Size: M12 Tightening torque: 54 Nm (478 lbf-in) At VRKP2 / VRKP4 / VRKP5 / VRKP6: Size: M16 Tightening torque: 100 Nm (855 lbf-in) Property class of the screws: 8.8 or greater, or A2-70 or greater
3	Remove the carton block, the base carton, and the plastic pallet from the robot.

Step

Action

1

Using a forklift truck, lift the robot and the pallet into the enclosure.

2

Fasten the robot to the frame by using the three provided threaded holes (1).

Tightening torque and size of the threaded holes:

At VRKP0 / VRKP1:

Size: M12

Tightening torque: 54 Nm (478 lbf-in)
At VRKP2 / VRKP4 / VRKP5 / VRKP6:

Size: M16

Tightening torque: 100 Nm (855 lbf-in)

Property class of the screws: 8.8 or greater, or A2-70 or greater

3

Remove the carton block, the base carton, and the plastic pallet from the robot.

For information on the disposal of the packaging, refer to Disposal.

Installing by Crane

NOTE: The motor covers cannot carry the weight of the robot.

WARNING
	FALLING HEAVY LOAD Attach lifting lugs to the robot body only. Do not attach lifting lugs to the motor covers or the motors. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Step	Action
1	Pull the three lifting lugs underneath the robot.
2	Use the crane to carefully lift the robot into the enclosure.
3	Fasten the robot to the frame by using the three provided threaded holes (1). Tightening torque and size of the threaded holes: At VRKP0 / VRKP1: Size: M12 Tightening torque: 54 Nm (478 lbf-in) At VRKP2 / VRKP4 / VRKP5 / VRKP6: Size: M16 Tightening torque: 100 Nm (855 lbf-in) Property class of the screws: 8.8 or greater, or A2-70 or greater
