4.6 Grease Supply to the Guides


4.6.1 Grease to Apply

Lithium grease No. 2 is used on the guides.

The following grease is applied when we ship the unit.

Idemitsu Kosan

Daphne Eponex Grease No.2


Other companies also sell a grease similar to this. If ordering from another maker, give the name of this
product and request something comparable.

4.6.2 How to Apply the Grease

1) Remove the side covers on both sides.

2) When greasing the guide, use a spatula or grease applicator to squeeze or inject grease into the

space between the slider and base, and then move the slider back and forth several times to let

the grease spread evenly. Remove excess grease.

3) Follow the same steps to apply grease on the other guide

4) Install the side covers.

Warning: Do not attempt to apply fluorine and lithium grease. When mixed with lithium

grease, not only decrease the grease characteristics, but also may damage the

actuator.

Caution: In case the grease got into your eye, immediately go to see the doctor to get an

appropriate care.

After finishing the grease supply work, wash your hands carefully with water and

soap to rinse the grease off.
