NOTE
• The maintenance position has to be approached with the robot.
• The wire feeder will be mounted in different ways depending on the
manufacturer. Please observe the operating instructions of the relevant
wire feeder.
For standard welding positions, we recommend the following axis positions for
the mounting of the cable assembly:
1

2
Cable assembly
NOTE
For the installation of the cable assembly, it is important to make sure that all
lines (control lead, water hoses, gas/compressed air lines) are installed
without torsion and with sufficient clearance.
Proceed as follows for the correct alignment and mounting of the wire feeder
and cable assembly:
1 Unscrew the wire feeder (1) .
2 Align the cable assembly (2) in the pre-determined direction and mount it
in the torch mount.
3 Fasten the cable assembly (2) with the machine-side connection to the wire
feeder.
4 Fasten the wire feeder (1) to the wire feeder mount (3). The position of the
wire feed results from the position of the robot (maintenance position).
Make sure that the cable assembly can still be moved
and downwards after fastening the wire feeder.
