INSTALLATION
WARNING: The load added onto the actuator must be less than or equal to
the rated load of actuator.
The distributor cannot be held responsible for any injuries and/or
damages caused as a result of not complying with the clauses of this section.
1. Please ensure that the extension tube is in the "lowest position". The term "lowest position"
in this manual refers to the position in which there is no further movement towards the DC
motor while the actuator is powered on. (Please refer to fig. 4 below).
2. The front and end joints of the linear actuator should be mounted onto two fixed positions on
the main chassis. Locations of these fixed positions should be chosen according to the
stroke length of the linear actuator. Users must use caution to ensure that the two-way
movement of linear actuator is smooth and within the stroke length after it installed onto the
fixed positions. Please ensure that no obstacle exists along the travel path of the actuator.
3. After the fixed positions have been selected, install the fixtures onto these selected positions
of the main chassis. These fixtures are used to fix the front and end joints of linear actuator to
the chassis.
4. Assemble the front and end joints of the linear actuator onto the two fixtures using fixture
bolts. Please ensure that the fixture bolts are able to rotate freely after this step is completed,
while ensuring that the fixture bolts will not drop off either during operating or resting period.
5. The chassis of linear actuator should be fixed in the horizontal direction if it is going to be
operated in this direction and likewise for vertical operation.
6. To extend the piston rod, connect red wire to positive post (Red) and black wire to negative
post (Black). To retract, connect red wire to negative post (Black) and black wire to positive
post (Red)
7. The operation of the linear actuator should be tested manually after the installation is
completed. Users should use caution to ensure that:
• The travel distance of the actuator is matching the requirement of the structural design.
• The up and low limit switches operate normally.
• The motor should stop when the extension tube reaches up and low limit switch positions.
If the linear actuator fails to meet any of these conditions, please repeat steps 2 to 4.
8. The entire installation is complete only if steps 1 to 6 are executed successfully.
MAINTENANCE
1 Store the linear actuator in a dry place and out of direct sunlight.
2 Clean the linear actuator with dry cloth.
