1.)  Use a brush to work approximately 0.5 in

3

 of grease for every  

3 inches of stroke length into the roller screw cylinder. Be sure to 
cover all of the threaded areas of the cylinder. 

2.)  Use a brush to work grease in to the roller screw assembly. Be 

sure to cover all the threaded surfaces of the screw assembly. 
This can be accomplished by applying grease to a few places on 
the roller screw assembly and rotating the components 
repeatedly in both directions to work the grease into the 
assembly. 

3.)  Force grease into the front of the thrust bearing assembly. Make 

a concerted effort to insure that the grease is well worked in. 
Grease must reach the bearing just behind the bearing that is 
visible as well. Use the following amounts of grease for each size 
roller screw and bearing: 

Tritex 60:

 0.5 in

3  

Tritex 75 & 90:

 0.75 in

   

Tritex 115: 

1.0 in

 

Reassembly 

1.)  Rethread the roller screw into the internally threaded cylinder 

(ITC). It is a multiple start screw, and this is not always easy. DO 
NOT FORCE THE ROLLER SCREW INTO THE CYLINDER. It 
is best to have the actuator vertical with the open end of the 
roller screw cylinder facing up. Position the roller screw above 
the cylinder so that it is aligned axially with the ITC. Slowly turn 
the roller screw 1/4 to 1/2 a turn counterclockwise with it in 
contact with the ITC. This will help to align the threads on the 
roller screw with the threads in the ITC. Rotate the roller screw 
clockwise and it should begin to thread into the cylinder. If it does 
not turn freely, remove it and begin again. When threading the 
screw into the cylinder, it will roll freely into the actuator. When it 
reaches the portion of the cylinder that contains the motor 
magnets, the roller screw will be more difficult to turn because of 
the magnetic field of the magnets. THIS IS NORMAL. Continue 
to thread the roller screw into the cylinder. When it reaches the 
bottom, it will become difficult to turn and the motor and bearings 
will begin to rotate with it. The roller screw is now fully inserted 
into the cylinder. 

2.)  Place a small amount of seal lubricant on the inside surface of 

the seal/bushing assembly.
