6-14 Maintenance
6. Wearing rubber gloves, manually apply 2.8-3.0 grams of Moly-Graph grease to the exposed
portion of all mechanical cables.
 2.8-3.0 grams is the amount Nordson ASYMTEK has determined to be optimal for
performance without spattering the grease from cables to parts. If you are experiencing
this issue, reduce the amount of grease on the cables.
7. Move the X-beam to the rear of the machine and apply grease to all exposed cables on the
left and right sides of the machine.
WARNING! Fingers may be pinched if the dispensing head is moved while cleaning and
lubricating the cables.
8. Move the X-beam to the front of the machine and apply grease to all exposed cables on the
left and right sides of the machine.
9. Move the Z-head to the left side of the X-beam and apply grease to all exposed cables on
the X-beam.
10. Move the Z-head to the right side of the X-beam and apply grease to all exposed cables on
the X-beam.
11. While an assistant is moving the X-beam SLOWLY in the Y-direction from bump stop to
bump stop, apply grease to the exposed cables near the Y-motor drive pulley.
12. While an assistant is moving the X-beam SLOWLY in the X-direction from bump stop to
bump stop, apply grease to the exposed cables near the X-motor drive pulley.
 NOTE Do not apply grease directly to the drive pulleys or cable pulleys as this will
over grease the mechanics.
13. Manually exercise the X/Y mechanics fully in all directions.
14. Wipe excess grease off drive pulleys, motor pulleys, cables, and frame.
15. When finished, replace the axis and cable covers.
16. Ensure adequate clearance between the pulley assemblies and side covers.
