Maintenance Instructions & Parts List
Provide Model Number and Serial Number When Ordering Spare Parts.
B. Reassembly Procedure.
1. Apply a few drops of Loctite RC/609 to the outside
diameter of the bearings, #15.
2. Press the four bearings, #15 into housing, #5a.
3. Press the four seals, #14 into the housing, #5a, securing
the bearings with no play.
4. Apply a liberal amount of bearing lubricant to all four
bearings.
NOTE: Recommended lubricant is Synco Super Lube with
Teflon or compatible NLG1 Grade 2 grease.
5. Replace cylinder, #1. Install using nut, #11.
6. Replace support shafts, #16 and tool plate, #13.
7. Screw piston rod of cylinder into tool plate and replace
locknut, #12.
8. Replace bumpers & stop collars.
(Applies to bumper option only.)
MOUNTING
The XLR Reach Slide incorporates square nut "T" slots on all
mounting surfaces and four through holes. The "T" slot feature
allows the slide housing to be positioned after mounting. An
assortment of square nuts are included with the slide to facilitate
mounting. Additional square nuts can be ordered - each kit
contains 8 square nuts (4 primary, 4 secondary).
LUBRICATION
The pneumatic cylinder and internal bearings are pre-lubricated
at the factory and are suitable for non-lubricated applications.
However, additional airline lubrication will increase the life of the
unit.
