Precautions for Handling
Intro-10
5. If return operations are continued over a short distance, they may rapidly
degrade the film of grease.
Continuous return operation within a distance less than 30mm may cause the grease film to degrade
rapidly.
As a guideline, in every 5,000 to 10,000 cycles, have approximately 5 cycles of return operation over a
50mm distance or more to regenerate the oil film. Continued use of the actuator in that state may lead
to breakdown.
In extreme cases, flaking may occur on the guide.
6. Pressing operation cannot be performed.
7. The "Allow ** mm or more" indicated in the External Dimensions is intended to
enable wiring without excessive force applied to the cable.
Allow *** mm or more cable linearity.
