Precautions in Handling
1. Handling the Packed Unit
Do not damage or drop. The package is not applied with any special treatment that enables it to resist
an impact caused by a drop or crash.
Transport a heavy package with at least more than two operators. Consider an appropriate method for
transportation.
Keep the unit in a horizontal orientation when placing it on the ground or transporting. Follow the
instruction if there is any for the packaging condition.
Do not step or sit on the package.
Do not put any load that may cause a deformation or breakage of the package.
2. Handling the Actuator After Unpacking
Do not carry the actuator by its motor unit or its cable or attempt to move it by pulling the
cable.
Hold the frame or motor cover section of the body when transporting the actuator main body.
Do not hit or drop the actuator during transportation.
Do not attempt to force any part of the actuator. Do not apply excess force especially on the fingers and
finger guide.
Environments for Installation, Storage and Preservation
Usage is possible in environments of pollution degree 3 or equivalent.
1. Installation Environment
The actuator should be installed in a location other than those specified below.
Also provide sufficient work space required for maintenance inspection.
Where the actuator receives radiant heat from strong heat sources such as heat treatment furnaces
Where the ambient temperature exceeds the range of 0 to 40C
Where the temperature changes rapidly and condensation occurs
Where relative humidity smaller than 20% or larger than 85%RH
Where the actuator receives direct sunlight
Where the actuator is exposed to corrosive or combustible gases
Where the ambient air contains a large amount of powder dust, salt or iron (at level exceeding what is
normally expected in an assembly plant)
Where the actuator is subject to splashed water, oil (including oil mist or cutting fluid) or chemical
solutions
Where the actuator receives impact or vibration
Place with an altitude of 2,000m or more
If the actuator is used in any of the following locations, provide sufficient shielding measures:
Where noise generates due to static electricity, etc.
Where the actuator is subject to a strong electric or magnetic field
Where the actuator is subject to ultraviolet ray or radiation
2. Storage • Preservation Environment
The storage and preservation environment should comply with the same standards as those for the
installation environment. In particular, when the machine is to be stored for a long time, pay close
attention to environmental conditions so that no dew condensation forms.
Unless specially specified, moisture absorbency protection is not included in the package when the
machine is delivered. In the case that the machine is to be stored and preserved in an environment
where dew condensation is anticipated, take the condensation preventive measures from outside of
the entire package, or directly after opening the package.
For storage and preservation temperature, the machine withstands temperatures up to 60C for a
short time, but in the case of the storage and preservation period of 1 month or more, control the
temperature to 50C or less.
Storage and preservation should be performed in the horizontal condition. In the case it is stored in the
packaged condition, follow the posture instruction if any displayed on the package.

Long Stroke Gripper, it may cause slackness or misalignment of the
stainless steel sheet. Continued usage in this orientation may lead to
damage to the stainless steel sheet. Check the actuator daily and , make
installation adjustment of the stainless steel sheet. (Refer to the
maintenance section of instruction manual (DVD) for the “Procedure for
Stainless Steel Sheet Adjustment”])
Make sure that the surface to install the actuator and that used as the
datum are a well-finished machined surface or one that possesses an
accuracy equivalent to it.
Ensure a room for maintenance work.
For the bolts to be used, a high-tensile bolt complying with ISO-10.9 or
more is recommended.
If using the tapped holes, use screws with the thread length dimension
being less than the effective depth of the holes.
For the actuator mounting, use a bolt with the dimension of its effective
mating length to the tapped hole is as stated below.
If tapped hole on steel thread length same as nominal diameter
If tapped hole on aluminum maximum depth tapped hole
For a tapped hole with its depth at 1.8
times or more of the nominal diameter,
have 1.8 times or more of the nominal
diameter
Please follow the specification values stated in the Instruction Manual
(DVD) for the tightening torque.
Failure to do so may cause an operation problem.
Please follow the specification values stated in the Instruction Manual
(DVD) for the allowable moment.
Applying load exceeding the allowable moment may cause a drop in the
product life.
No. Item Precautions
Stainless Steel Sheet
6
Do not attempt to hold the stainless steel sheet on the long stroke
gripper directly with hand.
Also, pay attention not to make a dent mark on the stainless steel sheet.
As the stainless steel sheet is thin, it is easy to get a dent mark or
scratch. Using sheet with damage may cause it get broken.
Wipe off all dust and metal powers when they get on the stainless steel
sheet. Operation with stainless steel sheet with foreign obstacles on
could cause damage, waving or looseness on the sheet when it gets
pinched inside the fingers.
Do not work in an ambient that contain dust and metal powers.
Wiring
For the controller, only the dedicated controller manufactured by our company can be used.
Using an undedicated controller may cause an accident such as burnout, combustion or heat generation.
Use the dedicated cable enclosed in the package when connecting the actuator and the controller.

[Prohibited Items in the Cable Processing]
Do not pull or bend forcibly the cable so as to give any extra load or tension to the cable.
Do not process the cable to extend or shortening by means of cutting out, combination or connecting
with another cable.
Do not bend the cable in the area from the connector tip inward to 150mm on both ends.

Do not let the cable flex at a single point.
Do not let the cable bend, kink or twist.
Do not pull the cable with a strong force
Do not let the cable receive a turning force at a single point.
Do not pinch, drop a heavy object onto or cut the cable.
When fixing the cable, provide a moderate slack and do not tension it too tight.
Separate the I/O line, communication line and power line from each other.
Do not store in the same duct.
