(1)(1)The robot (including severe dust/liquid protection model) cannot
be used with the following liquids because there is feat that rubber
parts (packing, oil seal, O ring etc.) will corrode.
(a) Organic solvcnts
(b) Coolant including chlorine / gasoline
(c) Acid, alkali and liquid causing rust
(d) Other liquids or solutions, that will harm NBR
(2) When the robots work in the environment, using water or liquid,
complete draining of J1 base must be done. Incomplete draining of
J1 base will make the robot break down.

GREASING
When greasing the robot, keep its power turned off.
i) Roughly speaking, replenish the robot with grease once a year.
ii) See Fig. 3.1 and Table 3.1 for greasing points and the method.

let, and attach the supplied
greasenipple to the greaseinlet. Aftergreasing, remove the
grease nipple, and attach the
flat--head bolts and sealing
washers to the grease inlet
and outlet.
CAUTION
If you grease incorrectly, the pressure in the grease bath
may increase steeply, leading to a broken seal, which will
eventually cause grease leakage or malfunction.
When greasing, be sure to follow the cautions stated in
Section 3.2.

GREASE
REPLACEMENT
Follow the procedure stated below to replace the grease in the J1--, J2--,
and J 3--axis reducersand theJ4-- and J5--axis gearboxesonce every three
yearsor after11,520hours of operation. See Fig. 3.1for greasingpoints.
1) Remove the seal bolts from the J1--, J2--, and J3--axis grease outlets
shown in Fig. 3.1. Also remove the flat--bolts and sealing washers
from the J4-- and J5--axis grease outlets.
2) Uncap thegreasenipplesat theJ1--, J2--, J3--, andJ4--axis greaseinlets.
Remove the flat--head bolt fromthe J5--axis grease inlet and attach the
supplied grease nipple to the J5--axis grease inlet.
3) Supply the grease specified in Table 3.2 to the J1--, J2--, and J3--axis
reducers, and J4-- and J5--axis gearboxes through their respective
greasenipples. Keepgreasing untilthe newgrease pushesout theold
grease and comes out from each grease outlet. Ensurethat the amount
of the newly supplied grease equals the amount of the drained grease
so that the grease bath will not become full.
4) Wind sealing t ape around the J1--, J2--, and J3--axis seal bolts you
removed, and attach them to the respective grease outlets.
5) Attach the J4-- and J5--axis flat--head bolts and t he J4-- and J5--axis
sealing washers to the respective grease i nlets and outlets.
