1. Actuator limit switches must be set prior to potenti- lays or by utilizing a momentary action, Double Pole, ometer installation. Double Throw, Center-off toggle switch (Duff-Norton part 2. The potentiometer is 5000 ohm single turn. Resis- EM534). If actuator runs opposite the desired direction, tance changes approximately 235 ohms per inch for reverse the red and black motor wires.
Section III Operation Precautions 3-1. Motor ises is an indication that pins need lubrication to prevent pin wear. The motor used on this actuator has a very high power output for its size. Consequently, heat generation in the 3-3. Jamming motor is more rapid than in more conventional motors.
Section IV Maintenance 4-1. Lubrication 4-3. Load Bearing The load bearing and the screw and translating tube The bearing is permanently lubricated and not readily are adequately lubricated for the life of the unit. Gear- relubricated. A bearing which shows any sign of rough- ing receives a light brush coat of grease at the factory.
