5.7.2 Grease Reservoir

For assembly please ensure that the grease reservoir is filled up with grease (dimension c and ø d in table 44.1 and
illustration 44.2).

5.7.3 Grease Change

To change the grease the component set should be completely disassembled and cleaned before regreasing. Fresh grease
should be applied generously to the inside of the Flexspline, the Wave Generator bearing, the Oldham coupling and the teeth
of the Circular Spline and Flexspline.
In illustration 44.3, the grease change interval depending on the grease temperature is given. The number of allowable revolu-
tions of the input shaft which represents the grease change interval can be estimated as shown in the example. This means,
that for a temperature of SK-1A or SK-2 grease of 40° C a change should take place after approx. 8.5 x 10
input shaft. All grease change data refers to rated speed and rated torque.
