Figure5.5 B-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. (R: 0°-Floor type, B: 0°-Floor type)

(2) Remove the Grease inlet plug G1/8, Install grease nipple A-PT1/8

(3) Remove the Grease Outlet plug G1/8

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

ü Grease type : VIGO GREASE RE0

ü Amount of grease : 920cc (828g, 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 B 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
