Before injecting/discharging grease, the posture of the manipulatormust be set. Make the posture as indicated in fig. 9-4 “RecommendedPosture of Each Axis While Injecting” to remove the plugs of thegrease inlets and the grease exhausting ports. (Refer to fig. 9-5 “PlugPosition of S- and L-axis Speed Reducer” , fig. 9-6 “Plug Position ofU-axis Speed Reducer and R-, B-, and T-gear in a casing” , andfig. 9-7 “Plug Position of R-, B-, and T-axis” .) If it is difficult to makethe recommended posture because of external cabling or etc., adjustthe posture as much as possible to make the position of grease inletlocated in the lower part and the position of exhaust port located in theupper part. Thus, grease can be filled/exchanged more properly as therecommended posture.Table 9-3: List of Necessary ItemsItems When exchangingthe grease of each axisS L U Casing R BTGrease zerk A-PT1/4 Grease zerk A-PT1/8 Hexagon bit tool, width across flat: 5 Hexagon bit tool, width across flat: 6 Hexagon bit tool, width across flat: 8 Torque wrench (Range of use: 4.9 N•m - 23 N•m) Torque wrench, Extension bar for hexagon bit (30 mm or longer) ThreeBond 1206C Recommended grease lubricator: Powerlube P3C by Macnaught Air supply (air supply pressure: 0.3 MPa or less) Joint and hose for grease discharging (Approx. 150 mm) Container for grease discharging (Checking the cubical content (cc) insidethis container should be available.)
