2211.4 Interior InspectionTurn off the power, remove the side covers, and then visually inspect the interior.Check the following items during interior inspection.Body Loose mounting bolts?Guides Lubrication appropriate? Soiling?Ball screw Lubrication appropriate? Soiling?How to inspect the interior:1) Remove both side covers.Use an Allen wrench of 1.5mm across flats for SA5C/SA6C/SA7C/SS7C or an Allen wrench of 2.00mmacross flats for SS8C/HS8C.Make a visual check of the interior to see if there is any dustor foreign matter in the unit and check the lubrication. Evenif the grease you see around the parts is brown, thelubrication is fine as long as the traveling surface appearsshiny.2) If the grease becomes dirty and dull or if the grease has worn away due to extended operating time,lubricate the parts after cleaning them.3) When the inspection/maintenance work is complete, install the side covers.Tightening torque: SA5C/SA6C/SA7C/SS7C: Thin-head screw M3 × 6 - 87.2N·cm (8.90kgf·cm)SS8C/HS8C: Thin-head screw M4 × 6 - 204N·cm (20.8kgf·cm)When installing the side covers, do not let them contact theend faces of the stainless sheet. This may damage or bendthe stainless sheet, causing the sheet to deteriorate or wearquickly. To prevent this problem, insert a shim (approx. 0.1to 0.2mm) between the sheet and each cover between thesheet and each cover to provide a slight allowance, andgently push in the cover.Caution: When checking the interior, be careful not to bend or scratch the stainless sheet. Wear protectivegloves when handling the stainless sheet, because it has sharp edges that may cause accidentalcuts.The front cover is supporting the ball screw; so do not disassemble the front cover.If the front cover is misaligned, the shaft centers may become offset, thus increasing the travelingresistance, reducing the service life of each part, or generating noise.
