MAINTENANCE
The gearbox is longlife lubricated and will not require any further relubrication.
The linear drive and the push rod guide require periodic relubrication, according to Table 9.1
“Maintenance”, or at the latest after 1 year of time. Please use the lubricant indicated in Table 8.1
or equivalent.
Every 2 months time interval: visual inspections of actuator conditions, cleaning of dirty parts of the
actuator.
In case of lubricant leakage, contact SERVOMECH.
