13. Maintenance and Inspection
13.4 Inspection of Interior
Inspect the interior with the power turned off.
Remove the rod cover.
When inspecting the interior, check the items specified below.
Main unit
Loose actuator mounting bolts,
other loose items
Guide section Lubrication, buildup
Visually inspect the interior of the equipment. Check whether dust or other foreign matter has gotten inside
and check the lubrication state.
The lubrication may have turned brown. This is not a problem as long as the travel surfaces shine as
though they are wet.
If the grease is mixed with dust and dirty or has no shiny appearance, or if the grease has lost its efficacy
due to prolonged use, use a soft cloth, etc., to gently wipe the sliding parts of the lead guide and detent
and then replenish grease.
13.5 Internal Cleaning
x Use a soft cloth to wipe away dirt and buildup.
x Do not blow too hard with compressed air as it may cause dust to get in through the gaps.
x Do not use oil-based solvents, neutral detergent or alcohol.
