For the wall-mounted type, the S-Axis operating range must be ±30
°.

Fixing the Manipulator Base
For the wall- or ceiling-mounted types, be sure to use 4 hexagon socket head cap screws M16
(tensile strength: 1200 N/mm
2
or more) to fix the manipulator base. Use a torque of 206 N
m
in tightening the screws.
