aligned, until the gaskets on the top surfaces of the robot base pads are touching the
bottom surfaces of the frame mounting pads.

To achieve the correct compression of the sealing gaskets, the mounting tabs on the frame
must be 12.7 mm, +1.3, -0.7 mm (0.5 in., +0.05, -0.028 in.) thick.
If you choose to use a different frame pad thickness and provide your own mounting bolts, the
bolts need to be M16-2.0, 316 stainless steel flange bolt (DIN 6921 standard). The threads must
engage at least 24 mm (0.94 in.) of the robot base threads (HeliCoil), for sufficient support. The
bolts must not bottom out, or the washer seals and gaskets will not be compressed enough to
form a good seal.
When mounting the robot, note the following:
l
Verify that the robot is mounted squarely before tightening the mounting bolts.
l Verify that the gaskets between the robot pads and the mounting frame are in their
grooves in the pads, and completely covered by the mounting frame pads.
l USDA requires that all exposed screws be sealed with a gasket, which must be
compressed to specific standards. To achieve this, the Quattro HS robot mounting bolts
use a spacer that fits inside a compressible sealing gasket. See the following figure.

l
Place a spacer, then a sealing gasket, on each bolt.
l Insert the bolts through the holes in the frame mounting pads and into the threaded
holes in the robot base mounting pads. See the following table for mounting bolt torque
specifications.
l
Check the position of the gaskets between the robot base pads and the mounting frame.
