6.3.4 Checking the Belt Tension for the Vertical Axis
Using a push-pull gauge, push the timing belt for vertical axis with a force of A (gf) and measure the
amount of deflection.
If the deflection is B (mm), the belt tension is normal.
If not, adjust the belt tension by referring to 6.3.6, “Adjusting the Belt Tension for the Vertical Axis.”

z When measuring deflection, do not use a gauge with a sharp tip that may damage the belt.
z Disassembly of the cover generates dust. Before disassembling the cover, move the robot to a
location where dust will not cause problem, or cover the robot with a plastic sheet, etc., to prevent
dust from scattering.
