2.3.3 Safety Precautions (Encoder)
■ Precautions for Correct Use
• Do not subject the E6CP Encoder to oil or water.
• The Encoder consists of high-precision components. Handle it with
utmost care and do not drop it, otherwise malfunctioning may result.
• When connecting the shaft of the Encoder with a chain timing belt or
gear, connect the chain timing belt or gear with the shaft via a
bearing or coupling as shown in the following diagram.
• If the decentering or declination value exceeds the tolerance, an
excessive load imposed on the shaft may damage or shorten the life
of the Encoder.
• Do not place excessive loads on the shaft if the shaft is connected to
a gear.
• The tightening torque must not exceed the value given in the table at
the right when the Rotary Encoder is mounted with screws.
• Do not pull wires with a force greater than 29.4 N while the Rotary
Encoder is secured and wired.
• Do not subject the shaft to shock. Therefore, do not strike the shaft
or coupling with a hammer when inserting the shaft into the
coupling.
• Make sure there is no foreign matter in the Connector before
connecting it to the Encoder.
