a way that there is no interference at any point within the stroke.
Do not scratch or dent the sliding parts of the product tube, piston rod, etc., by striking or grasping
them with other objects. The com- ponents are manufactured to precise tolerances. Even a slight
deformation may cause a malfunction or seizure.
6. Prevent the seizure of rotating parts (pins, etc.) by ap- plying grease.
7. Do not use the product until you confirm that the equipment can operate properly.
After mounting or repair, connect the power supply to the product and perform appropriate functional
inspections to check it is mounted properly.
8. When one side is fixed
When an actuator is operated at a high speed with one end fixed and the other free (basic, flange, or
direct mount types), a bending moment may act on the actuator due to the vibration generated at the
stroke end, which can damage the actuator. In such a case, install a mounting bracket to suppress the
vibration of the actuator body, or reduce the speed so that the actuator does not vibrate. Also, use a
mounting bracket when moving the actuator body or when a long stroke actuator is mounted
horizontally and fixed at one end.
9. Do not apply strong impact or an excessive moment while mounting the product or a
workpiece.
If an external force over the allowable moment is applied, it may cause play in the guide or an increase
in the sliding resistance.
10. Maintenance space
Reserve sufficient space for maintenance.
11. Mounting connectors
Tighten the screws evenly. Tightening torques are as indicated below.
2.4 Handling
Warning
1. Do not touch the motor during operation.
The surface temperature of the motor can increase to approx. 80 C due to operating conditions. The
temperature may also increase due to energiza- tion. As it may cause burns, do not touch the motor
when in operation.
2. If abnormal heating, smoking, fire, etc., occurs in the product, immediately shut off the power
supply.
3. Stop operation at once if there are abnormal noises or vibrations.
