Place the screen mesh over the hole in the drain pan. This keeps most of the chips in
the pan for later clean up. For cutting plastic, remove the top screen as the plastic
cuttings will plug it up. The top screen does not need to be used at all, but it results in
more frequent filter changes.
Place the fabric filter over the edge of the filter housing and allow the center of the filter
to drop inside the housing.
Slide the housing on to the drain fitting and secure with a hose clamp. The clamp
should extend over the filter to secure it. The fabric filter catches the smaller particles.
When it is full, simply remove it, throw it away and put a new one on.
Simulate the file before cutting.
The process of simulation does all the work of joining entities into the correct order and
direction.
Open the cut dialog, click auto tool path, click nearest cutting order, move the sim delay
to .001, click simulate. The joining and sorting is done and then the actual tool path is
simulated. If a non zero finish cut is specified, a red path indicates the rough cut and
the blue path indicates the final or finish cut.
Cut the file
Ready?? Click cut the file. The router turns on, proceeds to the starting point, lowers to
the cutting position and commences cutting. No further intervention is required. Assure
that coolant is flowing. (Adjust the spindle delay time in move options to allow time for
the spindle to come up to speed and the coolant to reach the top.) When routing is
complete, the router will raise and power will be removed from the router and the
coolant pump.
When cutting is completed, clean the machine. Wipe down the steel parts with a dry
rag and spray with a light coat of LPS2. Spray LPS2 liberally under and around the
linear bearings. Remove the collet and end mill. Clean out any chips and spray collet
and collet bore with LPS2.
SC2B Control Unit
PWR:
turns AC power on and off. It also acts as an emergency off. In the off position,
it removes all AC power from the internal components. If the spindle is running, or the x
or y axis is moving, everything will stop in the off position and will not automatically
restart when turned back on. The light in the PWR rocker switch is lighted when the
internal components are receiving AC power.
Spindle:
The “1” position allows the computer to switch the ac power to the rear gfci
socket. The “0” position removes control from the switch thereby removing power from
the socket. Before performing any maintenance, remove the power cord from the SC2.
