6.4 Operating environment
Warning
Avoid use in the following environments.
a. Locations where a large amount of dusts and cutting chips are airborne.
b. Locations where the ambient temperature is outside the range of the temperature specification
(refer to specifications).
c. Locations where the ambient humidity is outside the range of the humidity specification (refer to
specifications).
d. Locations where corrosive gas, flammable gas, sea water, water and steam are present.
e. Locations where strong magnetic or electric fields are generated.
f. Locations where direct vibration or impact is applied to the product.
g. Areas that are dusty, or are exposed to splashes of water and oil drops.
h. Areas exposed to direct sunlight (ultraviolet ray).
2. Do not use in an environment where the product is directly exposed to liquid, such as cutting oils.
If cutting oils, coolant or oil mist contaminates the product, failure or increased sliding resistance can result.
3. Install a protective cover when the product is used in an environment directly exposed to
foreign matters such as dust, cutting chips and spatter.
Play or increased sliding resistance can result.
4. Shade the sunlight in the place where the product is applied with direct sunshine.
5. Shield the product if there is a heat source nearby.
When there is a heat source surrounding the product, the radiated heat from the heat source can increase
the temperature of the product beyond the operating temperature range. Protect it with a cover, etc.
6. Grease oil can be decreased due to external environment and operating conditions, and it
deteriorates lubrication performance to shorten the life of the product.
[Storage]
Warning
1. Do not store the product in a place in direct contact with rain or water drops or is exposed to
harmful gas or liquid.
