Attention   If grease is added without removing the outlet plug, the grease will go inside the motor and may damage it. It is absolutely necessary to remove the plug.

 

n  Grease Replacement

 

(1)    Remove the grease outlet plug.

 

(2)    Inject the grease into the grease inlet using a grease gun.

 

ü  Type of grease : VIGO GREASE RE0 ü  Amount of grease : 755cc(680g)

 

ü  Type of grease : Eureka 114 No.0 ü  Amount of grease : 755cc(634g)

 

(3)    The grease replacement is complete when new grease appears in the outlet port. The new grease can be distinguished from the old one by color.

 

(4)    Clean the outlet with cloth and release over-injected grease.

①     Place a vinyl bag on the grease outlet.

②     Commission the Axis-S at ±45° for 1.5 hours at 50% speed.

③     Remove the vinyl bag.

 

(5)    Clean the greased around the outlet and assemble the seal-taped plug into its original state.

 

Caution If the specification of the currently filled grease is MOLYWHITE RE00, you must fill the VIGO GREASE RE0 grease after more than 100 hours of operation.

 

n Injecting grease after replacing the reducer.

 

(1)   Prepare a grease nipple A-PT1/4.

 

(2)   Remove the plug G1/4 of the grease inlet, and fasten the grease nipple A-PT1/4.

 

(3)   Remove the plug G1/4 of the grease outlet and an air vent set.

 

(4)   Inject the grease into the grease inlet using a grease gun.

 

ü  Grease type : VIGO GREASE RE0 ü  Amount of grease : 944cc(850g)

 

ü  Grease type : Eureka 114 No.0 ü  Amount of grease : 944cc(793g)

 

(5)   The grease replacement is complete when new grease appears in the outlet port.

 

(6)   Discharge excessively fueled grease and residual pressure. (Refer to the discharge procedure below.)

 

(7)   Remove the grease nipple of the inlet and the plug of the air vent, and assemble the inlet plug and air vent set.

 

 

n Procedure in discharging excessively fueled grease and residual pressure after grease replacement and injection

 

(1)   Attach a grease receiver or a hose to the grease outlet to prevent contamination from discharged grease.

 

(2)   Operate it within a range without surrounding and interference under the following conditions.

①    Operation angle : 80°or more

②    Operation speed : 50%

③    Operation time : 1.5 hours or more

④    Work so that the injected amount and the discharged amount are the same. If the discharged amount is less, the residual amount needs to be discharged through the inlet.

 

(3)    Wipe the outlet port with a cloth and attach the plug.
