8Care and maintenance
Lubricating the roller bearing guides:
1. Lubricate the SLG−... at the 4 lubrication nipples.
Lubrication intervals: every 5,000 km.
Grease type and gun: see Accessories".
S Note that lubrication must be undertaken more often:
 in dusty and dirty environments
 with work strokes of < 50 mm or > 2000 mm
 at speeds of
> 2 m/s
 in ambient temperatures of > 40 °C.
S Always lubricate the SLG−... at the latest every 3 years.
S Push the slide backwards and forwards during lubrication. Otherwise the
grease cavities will not be filled to an equal extent.
2. Lubricate the guide rail, if it no longer has a layer
of grease.
Grease type: see Accessories".
Maintaining the band system:
S Clean the band system if required with a soft cloth.
Excessive friction or the use of grease−solvent cleaning agents (e.g. soap
suds) will damage the grease layer.
S Lubricate the surface of the band system if it no longer has a layer of
grease.
Grease type: see Accessories".
