PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE LUBRICATION REQUIREMENTS
PneuMoment actuators are factory lubricated. Internally, the air cylinder is lubri-cated with our proprietary HT-99
petroleum based oil for extensive maintenance-free operation. A small amount of lightweight oil is used to assist
the assembly of the load beam into the guide beam.
Actuator life can be greatly extended by providing additional lubricant with an air line mist lubricator or direct
introduction of non-detergent petroleum based oil into the internal cylinder via the ports every 500 hours of
operation. No further lubrica-tion between the load beam and guide beam is necessary.
Factory repair is recommended.
Please contact Bimba at 1-800-44-BIMBA for instructions on returning a unit for factory repair.
