Removing and assembling the gearhead
See the following steps to replace the gearhead or to change the cable outlet position.
However, when the motor which cable outlet direction is the output shaft side (the end of the motor model name is
F
)
is used, it cannot be installed in the direction where the motor cable faces the hollow output shaft side.
1. Removing the gearhead from the motor
Remove the hexagonal socket head screws (4 places) assembling the
motor and gearhead, and detach the gearhead from the motor.
2. Assembling the gearhead to the motor
1) Keep the pilot sections of the motor and gearhead in parallel, and
assemble the gearhead with the motor while slowly rotating it
clockwise/counterclockwise.
At this time, note so that the pinion of the motor output shaft does
not hit the side panel or gears of the gearhead strongly.
Change the cable
position to a desired
90° direction.
2) Check that there is no gap between the motor and the gearhead, and tighten them with hexagonal socket
head screws (4 places).

Do not forcibly assemble the motor and gearhead. Also, prevent metal objects or foreign substances from
entering in the gearhead. The pinion of the motor output shaft or gear may be damaged, resulting in noise or
shorter service life.
•
Do not allow dust to attach to the pilot sections of the motor and gearhead. Also, assemble the motor and
gearhead carefully by not pinching the O-ring at the motor pilot section. If the O-ring is crushed or severed,
grease may leak from the gearhead.
