Precautions
1. Do not set speeds and accelerations/decelerations equal to or greater than the respective
ratings.
If the actuator is operated at a speed or acceleration/deceleration exceeding the allowable value, abnormal
noise or vibration, failure, or shorter life may result.
In the case of interpolated operation of combined axes, the speed and acceleration/deceleration settings
should correspond to the minimum values among all combined axes.
2. Keep the load moment within the allowable value.
If the actuator is operated under a load equal to or greater than the allowable load moment, abnormal noise
or vibration, failure, or shorter life may result. In an extreme case, flaking may occur.
3. Keep the overhang length to within the allowable value.
If the overhang length is equal to or greater than the allowable value, vibration or abnormal noise may occur.
4. Back and forth operation in a short distance may cause wear of grease.
If the actuator is moved back and forth continuously over a short distance of 30 mm or less, grease film may
run out. As a guide, move the actuator back and forth repeatedly for around 5 cycles over a distance of
50 mm or more after every 5,000 to 10,000 cycles.
5. Do not leave for a long term with the markings applied on.
6. The actuator of Lead 10 may move when servo is OFF in some cases even with no load
applied on it.
7. In some cases in operation the operations noise may get loud.
8. With a low-lead type (lead: 2.5 mm), do not move the actuator back and forth by forcibly
pushing or pulling the rod side.
With a low-lead type, moving the actuator from the rod side generates strong resistance.
If the actuator is forcibly moved, the load applied to the feed screw may cause malfunction or damage. Use
a rotational tool (optional), etc., from the back side to turn the rotary shaft.
