Figure5.4 R2-axis reducer grease injection/discharge port

 

Attention

 

Do not inject excessive grease. The excessive grease would cause an abnormal operation.

 

n  Grease replenishment

 

(1)    Prepare the grease nipple A-PT1/4. (V: 0°-Floor type,R2: 0°-Floor type)

 

(2)    Remove the bottom Arm Cover and Grease inlet plug G1/4, Install grease nipple A-PT1/4

 

(3)    Remove the Grease Outlet plug G1/4.

 

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

 

ü  Grease type : VIGO GREASE RE0

ü  Amount of grease : 1,236cc (1.1kg, for reference)

 

(5)   Inject the new grease until it comes out of the outlet.

The new grease can be identified by color.

 

(6)   Remove the residual grease while moving the R2 axis for a few minutes, and then inject the new grease until it comes out of the outlet.

 

(7)   Release the over-injected grease and residual pressure (refer to the following removal procedures)

 

(8)    Remove the grease nipple of the inlet and assemble the inlet plug.

 

n  Injecting the grease after replacing the reducer

 

(1)    Prepare the grease nipple A-PT1/4. (V: 0°-Floor type,R2: 0°-Floor type)

 

(2)    Remove the bottom Arm Cover and Grease inlet plug G1/4, Install grease nipple A-PT1/4

 

(3)    Remove the Grease Outlet plug G1/4.

 

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

 

ü  Grease type : VIGO GREASE RE0

ü  Amount of grease : 1,648cc (1.5kg)

 

(5)   Inject the new grease until it comes out of the outlet.

 

(6)   Release the over-injected grease and residual pressure (refer to the following removal procedures).

 

(7)   Remove the grease nipple of the inlet and assemble the inlet plug and Arm cover

 

n  Procedures for replacing the grease and injecting new grease and then removing the over-injected grease and residual pressure

 

(1)   Remove the Arm cover and Attach a grease tray or hose to the grease outlet to prevent the surroundings from being contaminated by the discharged grease.

 

(2)   Will operate under the following conditions within the range that will not cause interference with the surroundings.

 

     Operation angle : 60° or above

     Operation speed : 100%

     Operation time : 20minutes or above

 

(3)   Wipe the outlet with a cloth and assemble the plug as it was.
