9.7.2 How to Apply Grease
1) 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 grease spread
evenly.
Apply grease on the guides on both sides.
Remove excess grease.
2) When greasing the ball screw, clean the ball screw, apply grease using a finger, and then move the slider
back and forth several times to let the grease spread evenly.
At this time, be careful not to deform the stainless sheet by accidentally touching the sheet.
Remove excess grease.
3) Install the side covers.
Tightening torque: SA5C/SA6C/SA7C/SS7C: Thin-head screw M3 × 6 87.2 N•cm (8.90 kgf•cm)

Refer to 3) in 9.5, “Interior Inspection,” for notes on installing the side covers.
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.
