Precautions in Handling
1. Ensure use of the product in the specified conditions, environments and ranges.
Operation out of the specified conditions could cause a drop in performance or malfunction of the product.
2. Back and forth operation in short distance may wear out the oil film of the grease.
If the actuators are moved back and forth continuously over a short distance of 30 mm or less, grease film
may run out.
As a guide, move the actuators back and forth repeatedly for around 5 cycles over a distance of 50 mm or
more after every 5,000 to 10,000 cycles. Keep using the actuators with the grease worn out may cause
malfunction.
3. Do not attempt to apply a rotary torque the rod.
Make the rod axis center and the load movement direction are the same.
Doing so may damage the internal component such as the rod stopper, and may result in an operation
failure.
Make sure to hold the rod with a wrench sized 14 when tightening a nut on the tip of the rod.
4. Do not attempt to apply load more than allowable value (the value same as the
maximum pressing force) or impact load to the thrust direction.
Doing so may damage the internal component such as the rod stopper, and may result in an operation
failure.
5. Make sure to attach the actuator properly by following this operation manual.
Using the product with the actuator not being certainly retained or affixed may cause abnormal noise,
vibration, malfunction or shorten the product life.
