Storage
Store your electric cylinder for a minimal amount of time in a clean and dry location within the
Environmental Specifications on page 65 .
Observe these conditions when storing the electric cylinder:
• Be sure the equipment is in good working order before storing. Perform repairs,
maintenance, and inspections before storing equipment.
• Store the equipment in a suitable storage position (horizontal) that will prevent damage
to the connectors and electronics.
• After 6 months of storage, cycle the equipment two complete strokes to redistribute the
internal lubricants.
• After storage for a period longer than 2 years without use, lubricant replacement is
recommended through Rockwell Automation Technical Support.
