MG70
Grease Gun Unit MG70
For detailed dimensions, see B-864.
Grease Gun Unit MG70 is capable of lubricating small to large types of LM Guides by replacing ded-
0
icated nozzles (attached). For small LM Guides, MG70 is provided with dedicated attachments. The
user can select from these attachments according to the model number and the installation space.
MG70 has a slit window, allowing the user to check the remaining amount of grease.
It is equipped with a bellows cartridge that can hold 70 g of grease and is replaceable without smirch-
ing your hand. It supports a wide range of grease products, including AFA Grease, AFB-LF Grease,
AFC Grease and AFE-CA Grease, to meet varied conditions. This enables you to make a selection
according to the area requiring grease. (See A-959 to A-969.)
Since the grease to be used is sold separately, you must purchase it separately.
