securing the cylinder. (Tool: Single-ended wrench, 11-size)
3) Detach the speed controller from the cylinder. (At this time, check what side the speed
controller has been mounted.)
4) When installing a new stopper cylinder, reassemble the components in the order of steps 3) to
1).
At this time, assemble the cylinder so that the orientation of the speed controller is opposite to
that of the stopper tip.
Additionally, assemble the cylinder so that the distance between the end face of the stopper
arm and the end face of the rod becomes that shown in the Figure below.
5) After the components have been reassembled, supply air (0.49 MPa) to check that the stopper
cylinder moves smoothly.
