NOTICE
Risk of damage to property!
The operation of the compact slides with oil-lubricated compressed air causes
the factory primary lubrication to be washed out. Therefore, it is absolutely
essential that the compact slides continue to be operated with oil-lubricated
compressed air in order to avoid damage to the modules.
Once the compact slides have been operated with oil-lubricated
compressed air, they
may never
be operated without oil-lubricated
compressed air.
