•
Not exposed to oil (oil droplets) or chemicals.
The motor can be used in an environment that is splashed with water.
Not available for use under high pressure jets of water or immersion in water.

•
Inside an enclosure that is installed indoors (provide vent holes)
•
•
Area not subject to splashing water (storms, water droplets), oil (oil droplets) or
other liquids
Note
On rare occasions, a small amount of grease may ooze out from the
gearhead. If there is a concern over possible environmental damage
resulting from the leakage of grease, provide an oil tray or similar
oil catching mechanism in order not to cause a secondary damage.
Oil leakage may lead to problems in the customer’s equipment or
products.
How to install the motor
Secure the motor with hexagonal socket head screws (supplied) through the four
mounting holes provided. Do not leave a gap between the motor and mounting
plate.

Installing a load
The gearhead shaft is provided with a key slot
for connecting the transmission parts. When
connecting the transmission parts, ensure that
the shaft and parts have a clearance fit, and
always fix the parallel key to the output shaft
with a screw to prevent the parts from rattling
or spinning.

Note
Do not apply excessive force onto the output shaft of the gearhead
using a hammer or other tools. Doing so may cause damage to the
output shaft or bearings.
When using the output shaft end tapped hole of a gearhead
Use a tapped hole provided at the end of
the output shaft as an auxiliary means for
preventing the transfer mechanism from
disengaging.

Removing/Installing the gearhead
•
•
Removing the gearhead from the motor
Remove the gearhead by unscrewing the hexagonal socket head screws holding
the gearhead to the motor (2 locations).

Installing a gearhead to a motor
Using the pilot sections of the motor and gearhead as guides, slowly rotate it
clockwise/counterclockwise to prevent the pinion of the motor output shaft from
contacting the side panel or gear of the gearhead.
Also confirm that no gaps remain
between the motor and gearhead.
An O-ring is attached to the flange of
the motor. Do not pinch the O-ring when
assembling the motor and gearhead.
Pinching the O-ring causes a grease leak
from the gearhead.

Note
Do not forcibly assemble the motor and gearhead. Also, do not let
metal objects or other foreign matters enter the gearhead. The pinion
or gear of the motor output shaft may be damaged, resulting in noise
or shorter service life.
Connection and operation
•
•
Insulate the connecting part of the motor lead wires and power supply.
•
•
Ground the motor using a Protective Earth Terminal.
Note
Make sure that the motor case temperature does not exceed 90 °C
(194 °F) when operating the motor. Operation exceeding case
temperature 90 °C (194 °F) may significantly deteriorate the coils
and ball bearings of the motor and shorten the motor's life span.
Motor case temperature can be measured by fixing a thermometer
on the motor surface. It can also be measured using thermo tape or a
thermocouple.
