Insert the robot cable wires in the following order:
WARNING!
Miswiring of the robot cable can cause permanent damage to the motor drive.
Double check that all wires are in their correct position. If unsure have an electrician
or a person skilled in the art do the installation.
Unpack the motor drive cabinet from its transport packaging. Open the

CABINET
1. Place the cabinet in the designated area
2. Route the USB comm cable in to the UR cabinet
3.
Connect the USB comm cable to an available USB port on the UR control box
4. Connect the supplied power cord to the IEC socket
TOOL
1. Mount adapter flange on the UR robot using 4 x DIN 7991
M6 x 10 bolts and a 4 mm hex key (8 Nm).
NOTE: The rotation of the adapter ange and the ange of the robot should be
aligned so that the dowel pin holes match.
2. Mount the finishing tool on the
adapter flange using 6 x DIN 912
M8 x 16 bolts and a 6 mm hex key
(18 Nm). Hold the tool in place
while tightening the M8 screws,
otherwise the tool join might move.
NOTE: The dowel pin makes sure the tool
is mounted in the correct alignment.
3. Arrange the robot cable and eventual
vacuum hose alongside the UR robot
and make sure the cable and hose
does not hinder the movement
of the arm, E.g./I.e. by using clamps
or by suspending the cables in air.
4.
Connect robot cable to the finishing tool.
