There is AQ Collar attached on RCP2-RA8C/RA8R, RCP2-RA10C and RCP2W-RA10C.
However, to keep a stable condition for a long term, it is recommended to have grease-ups frequently in the
regular maintenance works.
Warning: Warning: Never use any fluorine-based grease. It will cause a chemical reaction when
mixed with a lithium-based grease and may cause damage to the actuator.

than 1 second or repeat spraying twice or more. Doing so may cause problems.
