5.4 Greasing (T series Manipulator)

The ball screw spline and reduction gear units need greasing regularly. Only use
the grease specified.
This section contains information of the parts requiring lubrication and greasing
intervals. For details of the lubrication procedure, refer to the Manipulator manual.
■ Keep enough grease in the Manipulator. Operating the Manipulator
with insufficient grease damages the sliding parts resulting in
insufficient Manipulator performance. It may also require a lot of time
and money for repair.
■ If grease gets into your eyes, mouth, or on your skin, follow the
instructions below.

As a rough indication, perform greasing at the same timing as overhaul.
However, the timing may vary depending on usage condition and the load applied
on the Manipulator (such as when operated with the maximum motion speed and
maximum acceleration / deceleration in continuous operation).
