Do not allow hands or fingers near the cylinder during its operation.
If finger, etc. were to get caught between shock absorber and body, it might damage on
the human body and the peripheral equipment. Take protective measures by mounting a Shock absorber
protective cover, etc. as necessary. Adjustment screw

End plate
Basically, avoid bottom-mounting a cylinder.
Mounting space is limited owing to the guide rod and the end plate, etc. Mount a
cylinder by the top mounting or side mounting. ∗ Adjust it so that the end of an adjustment
screw hit directly on the stopper bracket.

Adjustment
1. How to adjust an adjustment screw (Stroke adjustment)
Loosen only the hexagon nut 1, then turn the adjustment screw to adjust the stroke.
After adjusting, lock it with the hexagon nut 1. Fix it at the position ejected from the
end plate, so that the end face of an adjustment screw could hit the bracket for stopper
directly. (Refer to the figure right above.)
2. How to replace shock absorbers
Loosen hexagon nut 2, and turn a shock absorber counterclockwise for removal. For
installing a new shock absorber, fix it at the position that the end face of an adjustment
screw sticks out by 0.5 mm from a shock absorber. (Refer to the figure on the right.)
After adjusting the position of shock absorber, be sure to secure with hexagon nut 2.

well as holes for the hexagon socket head cap screws which
are used for mounting.
Moreover, in applications where impact occurs from a stopper
etc., the mounting screws should be inserted to a depth of 2d
or more.

(d = Screw O.D.)
2d or more
Caution
1. Use cylinders within the piston speed range.
An orifice is set for this cylinder, but the piston speed may
exceed the operating range if the speed controller is not used.
If the cylinder is used outside the operating speed range, it
may cause damage to the cylinder and shorten the service life.
Adjust the speed by installing the speed controller and use the øD
cylinder within the limited range. Bypass port dia.
C±0.2
2. Pay attention to the operating speed when the
product is mounted vertically.

B±0.2
When using the product in the vertical direction, if the load
factor is large, the operating speed can be faster than the
control speed of the speed controller (i.e. quick extension).
In such cases, it is recommended to use a dual speed
controller.
3. Do not scratch or gouge the sliding portion of the A±0.2
piston rod and the guide rod.
