8. Maintenance and Inspection
8.1 Inspection Items and Schedule
Perform maintenance and inspection per the schedule specified below.
This schedule assumes eight hours of operation a day. Shorten the inspection intervals if the utilization is higher,
such as when the actuator is operated continuously day and night.
Visual inspection of
appearance
Greasing Model
Start-up inspection {
After 1 month of operation {
After 3 months of operation { { (Rod slide surface) Rod type *1
Every 3 months thereafter { { (Rod slide surface) Rod type *1
After 3 years of operation or
5,000 km of moving distance
{ { (Guide/ball screw) Slider type *2
Every 1 year thereafter { { (Guide/ball screw) Slider type *2
*1 With a rod-type actuator, grease the rod slide surface if the surface is found dry at the start-up inspection or
every three months.
*2 With a slider-type actuator, grease the guide and ball screw as necessary by considering the use
environment, condition, etc.
8.2 Visual Inspection of Appearance
Check the following items in the visual inspection:
Actuator Loose actuator-mounting bolts, etc.
Cables Damage, connector coupling
Overall Noise, vibration
8.3 Cleaning
x Clean the exterior as necessary.
x Wipe off dirt using a soft cloth, etc.
x Do not blow compressed air at high speed. Doing so may cause dust to enter the actuator through gaps.
x Do not use petroleum solvent, since it will damage the resin and coated surfaces.
x To remove significant soiling, wipe the area gently using a soft cloth, etc., moistened with neutral detergent.
