1-2 Purpose and Scope
This manual provides installation, operation and maintenance instruction for the standard
Joyce/Dayton Electric Cylinders (ECB). Although this manual covers the standard Electric
Cylinders, some may vary significantly from this manual. For special units not covered please
contact Joyce/Dayton Corp. for assistance.
1-3 Receipt of Product
All equipment should be immediately inspected upon receipt for any damage and to verify correct
product and quantities. Any problems should be reported to Joyce/Dayton Corp. and the freight
carrier as soon as possible. Products returned without a Return Goods Authorization (RGA) will
not be accepted.
1-4 Warranty
Seller warrants its products to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal
and proper use in accordance with instruction of seller for a period of one year from the date of
shipment to buyer. Seller's liability under such warranty or in connection with any other claim
2
Page 3
relating to the products shall be limited to the repair, or at seller’s option, the replacement or
refund of the purchase price, of any products or parts or components thereof which are returned
to seller freight prepaid and which are defective in material or workmanship. Products or parts or
components thereof, which are repaired or replaced by seller, will be returned to buyer freight
collect. This warranty is not intended to cover consumer products, as defined in the MagnusonMoss Warranty-Federal Trade Commission Improvement Act, 15 U. S. C. Sections 2301-12,
which are purchased by buyer for purposes other than resale. If buyer is not intending to resell the
products, and if the products are consumer products as defined in the Magnuson-Moss Act, the
foregoing warranty, but not the limitation of seller's liability, shall be null and void. EXCEPT AS
EXPRESSLY STATED ABOVE, SELLER MAKES NO WARRANTY, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED,
WHETHER OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR
USE OR OTHERWISE, ON THE PRODUCTS, OR ON ANY PARTS OR LABOR FURNISHED
DURING THE SALE, DELIVERY OR SERVICING OF THE PRODUCTS.
1-5 Precautions of Use and Installation
1. Mechanical stops provided on the Electric Cylinders, (ECB), are not designed to be used as
end-of-travel stops. The customer is responsible for setting travel limits.
2. Travel can be limited using optional limit switches. These limit switches need to be set by the
customer. In most applications, factory or manufacturer-assisted installation is not required.
However, it is necessary that appropriate, qualified personnel perform the installation of
Joyce/Dayton products.
3. Joyce/Dayton Electric Cylinders, (ECB), are not rated for shock-loading or extreme vibration. It
is the responsibility of the user to ensure these conditions are not imposed on the actuator.
4. In the event that service or maintenance is required, the load must be secured or removed
before any work can begin.
5. The Electric Cylinder (ECB) can be mounted and operated in any orientation. Length of
allowable rise may differ for vertical and horizontal applications. Check the catalog and this
manual for allowable rises. Standard Electric Cylinders, (ECB) have vents in the
protection tube (outer tube). Additional holes will be plugged. Properly plug or vent
holes to prevent dirt or moisture form contaminating the actuator.
6. Never allow the Electric Cylinder to retract beyond the minimum closed position or extend
beyond the maximum open position, as damage to the unit can occur.
7. External temperature may exceed 230 Degrees F. near maximum duty cycle. Use caution to
prevent personal injury.
8. Do not use in applications where Electric Cylinder can be jammed against an
immovable object.
9. A brake motor is required on Ball Screw Electric Cylinders to prevent the load from drifting
when power is off.
1-6 General Installation instructions
1. Ensure that all personnel who will service or operate equipment are familiar with its use and
limitations.
2. Secure or remove the load before any installation procedures begin.
3. Be certain the rating of the Electric Cylinder (ECB) meets or exceeds the load.
4. The Electric Cylinder (ECB) must be mounted on a rigid structure sufficient to support the
maximum possible load. An under-designed structure could lead to premature wear or failure.
5. Drive shaft alignment is critical. Misalignment will cause reversing stresses in rotating
members and will lead to fatigue failure. Correct coupling specification is critical for systems
with more than one Electric Cylinder.
6. For systems with more than one Electric Cylinder, confirm that the Electric Cylinders and
shafts operate without binding or excessive force before power is applied.
7. When fastening the load to an Electric Cylinder, make sure the actuator is in the retracted
position. This positions the load accurately with respect to the lifting screw centerline. Never
pull the translating tube to one side to make connection with your structure. Fully extend the
Electric Cylinder to make sure the load is aligned with the translating tube.
3
Page 4
8. All Electric Cylinders are to be mounted with S.A.E. Grade 8 bolts or equivalent.
9. Torque the mounting bolts in a systematic pattern to avoid damage to the actuator.
10. Optional limit switches, which may be furnished with the Electric Cylinder, are NOT pre-set.
They require field adjustment before use.
Section II
Maintenance
2-1 Lubrication
Electric Cylinder
1. Electric Cylinders are lubricated before leaving the factory.
2. Do not operate Electric Cylinder without lubrication.
3. The lifting screw and tube are lubricated with Mobilith Mobilgrease XHP 221 grease, or
equivalent.
4. The housing is lubricated with XHP 461 grease.
5. The products listed are recommended by the lubricant manufacturers to meet the
requirements for normal operation. The listing of brand names is solely for the convenience of
users of Joyce/Dayton equipment and their lubricant suppliers; it does not constitute any
endorsement. Joyce/Dayton assumes no responsibilities for the quality, performance or
availability of any listed products.

Gear Reducer (option)
1. Standard ComDRIVE Electric Cylinder Gear Reducers are lubricated with AGMA 7
compounded oil (ISO Grade 460) before leaving the factory.
2. The products listed are recommended by the lubricant manufacturers to meet the
requirements for normal operation. The listing of brand names is solely for the convenience of
users of Joyce/Dayton equipment and their lubricant suppliers; it does not constitute any

3. Synthetic Lubricants are recommended for severe service applications. These lubricants are
more stable in regard to viscosity and temperature. They have a longer service life so they
may require fewer oil changes. They also decrease friction and wear on the gear reducer so
they may increase the life of the gear reducer.
4. This synthetic lubrication is also compatible with nitrile seal material as well as with alloy
bronze gear material.

2-3 Disassembly of Electric Cylinder
Before beginning to disassemble these units make sure the load has been removed and secured
according to best practice standards for safety..
Direct Drive option and ComDRIVE option
1. Motors supplied with Direct Drive and ComDRIVE units are not user serviceable.
2. Loosen the bolts attaching the motor to the jack or to the gear reducer and remove the motor.
3. The gear reducer on ComDRIVE units must also be removed before the electric cylinder can
be disassembled.

4. Loosen the bolts holding the limit switch, encoder, or potentiometer and remove from their
mounting bracket.
5. Loosen the bolts attaching the mounting bracket to the electric cylinder and remove
Disassembly of ECB
6. Loosen the hex head screws on the worm bearing caps or remove the mounting adapters
described above.
7. Remove the worm bearings and remove the worm shaft through the end of the sleeve. This
may also be removed after the Translating Tube and Screw Assembly is removed later in the
process.
8. Extend the translating tube assembly a few inches. This positions the components to be more
easily disassembled.
9. Loosen the setscrews at the base of the protection tube.
10. Unthread the protection tube and pull it off over the end of the translating tube assembly.
11. Loosen the set screws that secure the sleeve cap. Unthread the sleeve cap and remove it.
12. This will allow the translating tube assembly along with several internal components to be
pulled up out of the sleeve.
13. Remove the retaining ring located at the base of this assembly and remove the key.
14. Remove any portion of the lower bearing that may be attached to the worm gear nut.
15. Unthread the worm gear nut from the lifting screw.
16. The upper thrust bearing can now be separated from the worm gear nut along with the seal.
17. Remove the grease from the cavity and inspect parts for damage or wear.
18. Assemble replacement components by carefully reversing the disassembly process.
