Adjust air pressure using pressure reducing valve. The correct pressure is between 2 (29 PSI) and 4 bar (87 PSI).

For the most accurate pressure setting fill the triflex® R with cables and hoses and run the robot in a vertical position with axis 6 downwards.
Increase the air pressure until the wheel returns to the home position (F).
Take note of the pressure required to return the wheel to the home position. This setting is the maximum force required and should not be increased.
