4.1. Injection of Grease for Replenishing/Replacing, and Replacement of Grease
| Caution If the grease is not properly injected, the internal pressure inside the inlet can increase suddenly, causing damage to the oil seal, leakage, and abnormal operation. Therefore, the following procedures must be observed when injecting the grease. |
① Must remove the grease outlet plug before injecting the grease.
② If possible, avoid using a compressed air pump driven by the air supplied from the factory, and limit the grease injection pressure to 7 bar (7 kgf / cm2) or less.
③ Use only the designated grease. Otherwise, damage to the reducer and other problems could occur.
④ After injecting the grease, check whether the grease outlet has any leakage, and check if there is no pressure at the inlet, before fastening the plug.
⑤ Clean the spilled grease on the body of the positioner or on the floor to prevent accidents.
⑥ When using the positioner at an ambient temperature of 40℃ or higher, the grease replenishment and replacement cycle should be reduced in half.

※ The grease replenishment is applicable only to the RV reducer that is used for the tilting axis. The turning axis is a no-oil-injection type; thus, it does not need external oil injection.
