9 Maintenance and Inspection9.3 Notes on Grease Replenishment/Exchange Procedures9-19157569-1CDHW0485652MPL1006. Remove the grease zerk from the grease inlet, and reinstall the plug.Before installing the plug, apply Three Bond 1206C on the thread partof the plug. Then tighten the plug with a tightening torque of 4.9 N•m(0.5 kgf•m).9.3.4.2 Grease Exchange(Refer to Fig. 9-7 “T-Axis Speed Reducer Diagram”.)1. Remove the hexagon socket head plugs from the grease inlet andgrease exhaust port.2. Install a grease zerk A-PT1/8 to the grease inlet. (The grease zerk is delivered with the manipulator.)3. Inject grease through the grease inlet using a grease gun.– Grease type: Molywhite RE No.00– Amount of grease: approx. 900 cc– Air supply pressure of grease pump: 0.3 MPa or less– Grease injection rate: 8 g/s or less4. The grease exchange is completed when new grease appears in thegrease exhaust port. (The new grease can be distinguished from theold grease by color.)5. Move the T-axis for a few minutes to discharge excess grease.6. Wipe the discharged grease with a cloth, and reinstall the plug. Beforeinstalling the plug, apply Three Bond 1206C on the thread part of theplug. Then tighten the plug with a tightening torque of 4.9 N•m (0.5 kgf•m).7. Remove the grease zerk from the grease inlet, and reinstall the plug.Before installing the plug, apply Three Bond 1206C on the thread partof the plug. Then tighten the plug with a tightening torque of 4.9 N•m(0.5 kgf•m).NOTEIf the plug is installed while grease is being exhausted,grease will leak inside the motor and may cause a damage.Make sure to install the plug when the grease exhaust iscompleted.NOTE• If grease is injected with the plug on, grease will leakinside the motor and may cause a damage. Make sure toremove the plug before the grease injection.• Do not install a joint, a hose, etc. to the grease exhaustport. Failure to observe this instruction may result indamage to the motor due to coming off of an oil seal.NOTEIf the plug is installed while grease is being exhausted,grease will leak inside the motor and may cause a damage.Make sure to install the plug when the grease exhaust iscompleted.84 of 106
