Design Caution 1. Do not apply a load in excess of the operating limit. Select a suitable actuator by work load and allowable moment. If the product is used outside of the operating limit, the eccentric load applied to the guide will be excessive and have adverse effects such as creating play on the guide, degrading accuracy and shortening the life of the product. 2. Do not use the product in applications where excessive external force or impact force is applied to it. This can cause failure. 3. Because of the guide mechanism type, vibration that comes from an external source may be introduced into the workpiece during operation. Do not use this product in a location where vibration is not allowed. Handling Caution 1. Set the position determination width in the step data to at least 1. Otherwise, completion signal of in position may not be output. 2. INP output signal 1) Positioning operation When the product comes within the set range by step data [In position], the INP output signal will turn on. Initial value: Set to [1] or higher. Handling Caution 3. Never hit at the stroke end except during return to origin. When incorrect instructions are inputted, such as using the product outside of the operating limit or operation outside of actual stroke through changes in the controller/driver setting and or origin position, the table may collide against the stroke end of the actuator. Please check these points before use. If the table collides against the stroke end of the actuator, the guide, belt or internal stopper can be broken. This may lead to abnormal operation. 4. The moving force should be the initial value (100%). If the moving force is set below the initial value, it may cause an alarm. 5. The actual speed of this actuator is affected by the work load. When selecting a product, check the catalog for the instructions regarding selection. 6. Do not apply a load, impact or resistance in addition to the transferred load during return to origin. Additional force will cause the displacement of the origin position since it is based on detected motor torque. 7. Do not dent, scratch or cause other damage to the body and table mounting surfaces. This may cause unevenness in the mounting surface, play in the guide or an increase in the sliding resistance. 8. Do not apply strong impact or an excessive moment while mounting a workpiece. If an external force over the allowable moment is applied, it may cause play in the guide or an increase in the sliding resistance. 9. Keep the flatness of the mounting surface 0.2 mm or less. Unevenness of a workpiece or base mounted on the body of the product may cause play in the guide and an increase in the sliding resistance. 10. When mounting the product, keep a 40 mm or longer diameter for bends in the cable. 11. Do not hit the table with the workpiece in the positioning operation and positioning range. 12. Hold by the end plates when moving the body. Do not hold the belt cover. Series LEL Electric Actuator/Guide Rod Slider Specific Product Precautions 1 Be sure to read before handling.
