6. Maintenance and Care
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your telescopic linear actuator, follow these general maintenance guidelines:
- Keep the actuator clean and free from dust and debris.
- Regularly inspect the moving parts for any signs of wear or damage.
- Ensure all connections are secure and free from corrosion.
- Avoid operating the actuator beyond its specified load and speed limits.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your linear actuator, consider the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Actuator not moving: Check power supply connection, ensure the power adapter is plugged into a live outlet, and verify the voltage setting.
- Incorrect speed: Adjust the speed regulation dial on the power supply. Ensure the power supply voltage matches the motor's requirements.
- Unusual noise: Inspect for any obstructions in the linear path or loose components. Ensure the actuator is securely mounted.
