5.4 Cleaning
Ɣ Clean exterior surfaces as necessary.
Ɣ Use a soft cloth to wipe away dirt and buildup.
Ɣ Do not blow too hard with compressed air as it may cause dust to get in through the gaps.
Ɣ Do not use oil–based solvents as they can harm lacquered and painted surfaces.
Ɣ To remove severe buildup, wipe gently with a soft cloth soaked in a neutral detergent or alcohol.
5.5 Grease Supply to the guide
On the guide of the moving part, a product of maintenance free (long term supply of lubricating oil) is
applied. Product life or degradation may differ depending on the condition of use. Supply grease in
case there is degradation detected in the internal inspection.
IAI uses the following grease in our plant.
Kyodo Yushi Lithium Soap Based Grease Multemp PS No.2
Warning: Never use any fluorine-based grease. Mixing lithium-based grease with other grease
not only reduces the performance of the grease, it may even cause damage to the
actuator.
