4.2. Cleaning and Lubrication
WARNING
: Do not scratch any bearing surfaces when you clean or lubricate the
hexapod.
Cleaning
Before you use a cleaning solvent on any part of the HEX300-230HL, blow away small particles and
dust with nitrogen or, less preferably, clean, dry, compressed air.
Any external metal surface of the HEX300-230HL can be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol on a lint-free
cloth.
Lubrication
Only use the grease specified in table as other greases could be incompatible.

If the application process uses only a small portion of travel for most of the duty cycle, periodically
drive the stage through full travel to redistribute the lubrication in the bearings. The motor is
completely non-contact and requires no lubrication.
