7.5. Weight specifications
Definition
In installation, repair and maintenance procedures, weights of the components handled are
sometimes specified. All components exceeding 22 kg (50 lbs) are highlighted in this way.
To avoid injury, ABB recommends the use of lifting equipment when handling components
with a weight exceeding 22 kg. A wide range of lifting tools and devices are available for each
manipulator model.
