I NTELLIGENT ACTUATOR
10.3 Cleaning
• Clean the exterior surfaces from time to time.
• Wipe off dirt with a soft cloth.
• Do not spray compressed air on the actuator which might force dust into the crevices.
• Do not use petroleum-based solvents as they damage plastic parts and painted surfaces.
• If the unit gets badly soiled, apply a neutral detergent or alcohol to a soft cloth and wipe lightly.
10.5 Cleaning the inside
• Use a soft cloth to wipe off dirt on the inside.
• Do not use compressed air to spray away dust since this may force the dust into the crevices.
• Do not use petroleum-based solvents, neutral detergents or alcohol.
• Even if the grease is a brown color, the lubrication is fine as long as the travelling surface appears to be wet.
Check to see if there is any damage to the timing belt such as cracks in the teeth or in the section behind the teeth.
Note: The timing belt may generate a black powder. This is due to friction and is not unusual.
• The side cover can be removed with a hexagonal wrench.
If the grease becomes dirty and dull or if the grease has worn away due to extended operating time, lubricate the parts after
cleaning them.
After you finish inspection, tighten the mounting screws for side cover. The screw torque should be for a cross-recessed
head machine screw.
10.4 Internal inspection
Turn the power OFF, remove the side cover and do a visual check of the inside.
Confirm the inside condition with visual check.
Check to see if there is any dust or foreign objects inside the unit, and check the lubrication and condition of the timing belt.
