Caution:
1. When the unit is installed vertically oriented, attempt to put the motor up unless there is a
special reason. Putting the motor on the lower side would not cause a problem in an ordinary
operation. However, it may rarely cause a problem, when it is not operated for a long period,
depending on the surrounding environment (especially high temperature), caused by the
grease being separated and the base oil flowing into the motor unit.
2. If the actuator is installed in horizontally oriented wall mount for the slider types SA5C and
SA7C, it is easy for a foreign object to get inside the actuator from the opening on the side of
the actuator. And also it becomes easy to splash the grease applied on the guide and ball
screw from the opening on the side surface.
