box, as the emergency stop of the system.
The stop signals, “EMG” of the controller and the stop switch on the teaching box, are for decelerating
and stopping the actuator. Design the system with an emergency stop circuit which applies to the
relevant safety standards separately.
10. When using the product vertically for applications, it is necessary to install a built-in safety
device.
The table may fall due to the weight of a workpiece. The safety device should not interfere with the
normal operation of the machine.
Caution
1. Operate within the limits of the maximum usable stoke.
The product will be damaged if it is used with a stroke which exceeds the maximum stroke. Refer to
the specifications of the product.
2. When the product repeatedly cycles with partial strokes, operate it at a full stroke at least once
a day or every 1000 strokes.
Otherwise, lubrication may run out.
3. Do not use the product in applications where exces- sive external force or impact force is
applied to it.
The product can be damaged. The components, including the motor, are manufactured to precise
tolerances. Even a slight deformation may cause a malfunction or seizure.
4. During operation (positioning operation or pushing op- eration), it cannot be returned to the
origin position.
5. Refer to the Auto Switches Precautions (pages 15 to 19) if an auto switch is to be built in and
used.
6. Step motor (servo/24 VDC) and servo motor (24 VDC) specifica- tions with the following model
number are not compliant with UL Standards: “Controller/Driver type: Without controller/driver
(Nil).”
Individual actuators are not certified as UL Standards compliant products.
7. When UL Standards compliance is required, the electric actuator and controller/driver should
be used with a UL1310 class 2 power supply.
8. Do not exceed the product specifications even if a work load is supported by external guides.
Although the actuator moment is reduced by external guides, the required trans- port ability (the
relationship between the speed and the work load) is not reduced.
2.3 Mounting
Warning
1. Keep the manual in a safe place for future reference.
The product should be mounted and operated only after thorough- ly reading the operation manual
and understanding its contents.
2. Observe the tightening torque for screws.
Tighten the screws to the recommended torque for mounting the product.
3. Do not make any alterations to this product.
Alterations made to this product may lead to a loss of durability or damage to the product, which can
lead to human injury or damage to other equipment and machinery.
4. When connecting, make sure the rod axis and the load, and the direction of the movement
match.
Failure to do so may cause complications with the lead screw, such as wear or damage.
5. When an external guide is used, connect the moving parts of the actuator and the load in such
