Grease Exchange (Refer to " Fig. 24 S-Axis Speed Reducer and
Gear Diagram ".)
1. Remove the hexagon socket head plug PT1/8 from the exhaust port.
2. Remove the hexagon socket head plug PT1/4 from the grease inlet and install the
grease zerk A-PT1/4. Inject grease into the grease inlet using a grease gun. (The
grease zerk is delivered with the manipulator.)
3. The grease exchange is completed when new grease appears in the exhaust port. The
new grease can be distinguished from the old grease by color.
4. Move the S-axis for a few minutes to discharge excess grease.
5. Wipe the grease exhaust port with a cloth and reinstall the plug PT1/8. Tighten the
plug with a tightening torque of 4.9 N
m (0.5 kgfm). (Apply Three Bond 1206C to the
thread part of the plug.)
6. Remove the grease zerk from the grease inlet and reinstall the plug PT1/4. Tighten
the plug with a tightening torque of 4.9 N
m (0.5 kgfm). (Apply Three Bond 1206C to
the thread part of the plug.)
If grease is added with the plug on, the grease will go inside the motor and may damage it.
It is absolutely necessary to remove the plug.
Grease type: Molywhite RE No.00
Amount of grease: 7000cc
If the plug is installed when the grease is being exhausted, the grease will go inside the
