HANDLING THE LINEAR UNIT
The Linear units are carefully packed in a HARD WOODEN BOX for a safe transportation.
To take the Linear Unit out of the box, please consider the following handling instructions:
- Never lift the Linear Unit by the END BLOCKS - see PICTURE A
- Never grab by the PROTECTION STRIP of the Linear Unit
- Never grab by the CARRIAGE
To take the Linear Unit out of the box, a suitable lifting tool is needed. Always lift and carry the Linear Unit by the
main profile.
The Linear Unit must be supported all the time during the handling until it is fixed - mounted on the place, where it is
meant to be. For correct handling please refer to page number 1.020.0
PICTURE A is showing, that handling with the Linear Unit in this position is wrong, because the profile, guides and
other components might get deflected or damaged.

Lubrication of the ball nut and the carriage
Ball nut and carriage lubrication is done via
lubricating nipple DIN 3405 D at the center of the
carriage.
Lubrication of the cover strip
Apply a thin oil film to the cover strip.
To ensure that the oil is applied equally on the cover
strip move the carriage up and down the profile.
Please note that, if the linear unit is working in an
area with many dust particles, the lubrication must be
reapplied every once in a while.
For each Linear Unit the basic lubrication is done in the factory before shipment.
All bearings have been lubricated for life and do not require any additional lubrication under normal operating
conditions.

For lubrication and re-lubrication of linear units grease lubricant must only be used!
Do not use the grease which contains any solid parts!
The stated lubrication intervals in the table
are sufficient for normal operating conditions.
If you have special operating systems please
contact us.
The lubrication intervals are every 500
