ESETTING
THE
CAM
ARM
The feed box on the slide assembly is designed to prevent damage to the tool if it is
fed into the workpiece or part of the machine.
If the feed force is too great, then the cam arm that transfers motion from the cam
to the feed box, will slip on the shaft and prevent the tool from advancing. The cam
key on the top of the feed box will still turn because of the spring mechanism and
the clutch bearings system.
The key will eventually turn into the feed direction knob and stop advancing. Once
this happens, the FF1200-FF2400-FF3600 will not be able to feed the tool, regard-
less of the cutting resistance.
Do the following to readjust the feed box so that it is operational:
1.
L
oosen the clamp screw on
the cam arm, using a 3mm
Allen wrench, shown in
Figure 5-2.
2. Adjust the key and cam arm
so that they are positioned as
shown to the right, Figure 5-
3. This position will allow the
key to advance as the cam
arm slips, as the cam arm
clamp screw is adjusted to
the correct torque value.
3. Tighten the cam arm clamp
screw so that it is moderately
tight.
