Piping
!
Caution
①
Before piping
Before piping, perform air blow (flushing) or cleaning to remove any cutting chips, cutting oil, dust,
etc. from the piping.
②
Sealant tape
When installing piping or a fitting into a port,
prevent cutting chips and sealant material from
getting inside the piping.
When a pipe tape is used, leave 1.5 to 2 thread
ridges exposed at the end of the pipe.
2-4. Operating Environment
!
Warning
①
Do not use in environments where there is a danger of corrosion.
Refer to the construction drawings regarding cylinder materials.
②
Install a cover over the rod if it is used in an area that is dusty, or in an environment in which water
or oil splashes on the cylinder.
③
When using auto switches, do not operate in an environment with strong magnetic fields.
As this can cause the switch to malfunction.
!
Caution
①
Do not use in an environment where the product is directly exposed to liquid, such as cutting oils.
If cutting oil, coolant or oil mist splashes the product, play, increased sliding resistance and air
leakage can result.
②
Do not use the product in an environment directly exposed to foreign matter such as dust, cutting
chips and spatter.
This can result in play, increased operating resistance, air leakage, etc.
If the product is used in such an environment, contact SMC.
③
Shade the sunlight if the product is applied with direct sunshine.
④
Shield the product from radiated heat generated by nearby heat sources.
When there is a heat source surrounding the product, the radiated heat from the heat source may
exceed the operating temperature range. Protect it with a cover, etc.
⑤
Do not operate in a location subject to vibration or impact.
Contact SMC when using in this kind of location, as damage and operation failure to the fitting can
result.
⑥
Do not use the product in applications where excessive external force or impact force is applied to
it.
Malfunction or the damage of the table can result.
Although the table has adequate strength, if it is damaged, protect your hands with gloves.
Hurts can result
.

Lubricating
!
Caution
Lubrication of non-lubricating cylinder
The product has been lubricated for life at manufacturer, and does not require lubrication in
service.
If a lubricant is used in the system, use turbine oil Class 1 (with no additive) ISO VG302. Stopping
lubrication later may lead to malfunction because the new lubricant will displace the original lubricant.
Therefore, lubrication must be continued once it has been started.
Wrap this
way.
