11) Intermediate stops When an intermediate stopped position is performed with a 3-position closed center type/double check valve type directional control valve, it is difficult to achieve accurate and precise stopped positions due to the compressibility of air. Furthermore, since valves and cylinders are not guaranteed for zero air leakage, it may not be possible to hold a stopped position for an extended period of time.

7) Install a protective cover. During mounting, handling and operation, the rear plate makes reciprocating movements. Therefore, pay careful attention not to insert your hand, etc., between the cylinder and the rear plate. When you are going to fit this product to the outside of your equipment, take preventative measures such as installing a protective cover. Protective cover installation example Cover mounting bolt Protective cover...

8) Stroke adjustment on the extended side If the stroke on the extended side is adjusted due to the movement of the rear plate, assemble the product in accordance with the procedure below. (1) Locate the cylinder horizontally. (2) Loosen the hexagon socket head cap screw and move the rear plate to the desired position. (3) Extend the piston rod and make the rear plate close to the guide body, this is to avoid applying any unnecessary lateral load to the product.

9) Re-assembly of the disassembled guide Re-assemble the front plate and rear plate in accordance with the procedure below. (1) Locate the cylinder horizontally. (2) Mount the rod end nut, spring washer, flat washer, front plate and end bracket to the piston rod in order. (3) Hold the width across flats of the piston rod with a wrench while tightening the end bracket until the piston rod reaches the bottom of the thread of the end bracket.

10) Lubrication to bearing Lubricate from the grease nipple so that there is no contamination from foreign matter. In addition, use good quality No.2 lithium soap base grease. 11) Mounting orientation: For ceiling mounting (the opening of the rear plate is downwards), the rear plate may interfere with the head side of the basic cylinder due to deflection of the guide rods.

Caution 1) When extremely dry air is used as the fluid, degradation of the lubrication properties inside the equipment may occur, resulting in reduced reliability (or reduced service life) of the equipment. Please consult with SMC. 2) Install an air filter. Install an air filter upstream near the valve.

4) Removal of equipment, and supply/exhaust of compressed air Before components are removed, first confirm that measures are in place to prevent workpieces from dropping, run-away equipment, etc. Then, cut off the supply pressure and electric power, and exhaust all compressed air from the system using the residual pressure release function.
