10.3 Adding Grease
Since the pipe and slider are designed to slide against each other via a wear ring, food-grade grease is
charged as lubricant in order to extend the life of the wear ring and keep the pipe temperature from rising.
This grease contains antibacterial agent to prevent growth of bacteria and mildews. It also offers strong
adhesive power to withstand the flushing forces of high-pressure water. However, the grease will still be
consumed over time due to actuator operation, washing with water, and so on. If necessary, therefore,
apply grease during the inspection.
If the actuator had not been operated for a prolonged period of time, apply grease before operating it
again.
Applicable grease ---- Supplier: Taiyo Petroleum Gas Model: Medallion FM1 (antibacterial grease)
[How to Add Grease]
If the actuator has a screw cover, remove the cover.
Clean the surface of the slider rod, and apply grease over the entire surface using your finger.
To reach inaccessible areas of the slider, turn on the power and move the slider until the applicable areas
are exposed. Then, turn off the power and apply grease.
Also apply grease over the guides on both sides.
