    Maintenance and Reference — Monthly Inspection and Ball-Joint Lubrication

    • The simulator does not need much maintenance, but you should check for loose bolts or other abnormalities periodically (we recommend once a month).
    • Confirm the security of the nuts and bolts every few weeks.
    • Listen for any abnormal noises, if encountered please follow the instructions below on how to grease the ball joints attached to the motor arms.
    • Some play in the gearboxes and arms joints is unavoidable. It is in the nature of the gearboxes to have play. otherwise, they won’t move.
    • Some gearboxes have less at the beginning, but with time they all will get it. It is normal to have up to 10% of the motion range.
    • Motors can be warm after hours but should not be overheated over 70C.
    • If dampers are included in your order, don’t tighten them over setting this will negatively affect motor lifespan.
