When a strain wave gearing is used in an application for an operation of repeating startup/stopping, an outer-side lubrication portion and an inner-side lubrication portion, which are lubricated using different types of grease, remain in a communicating state without being divided using a seal member or the like. The outer-side lubrication portion is supplied with a much smaller amount of grease than the amount that would be required if used in an application such as a steady operation. Similarly, the inner-side lubrication portion is also supplied with a much smaller amount of grease than the amount that would be required if used in an application such as a steady operation. Essentially, the outer-side lubrication portion and the inner-side lubrication portion can be lubricated appropriately using different types of grease, without the grease becoming mixed.
