Some materials of low hardness contain abrasive substances leading to rapid cutting edge wear at
high speeds. Feed rates are governed by rigidity of set-up, volume of material to be removed, surface
finish and available machine power.
LUBRICATION
IN HORIZONTAL APPLICATIONS
•
Adjust the fluid flow as required using the flow regulator;
•
Add more cutting fluid if the shavings (metal chips) become blue.
VERTICAL AND OVERHEAD APPLICATIONS
Dip the cutter in cutting paste or apply an appropriate spray.
LUBRICATING THE FEED TRAVEL
The feed travel should be lubricated periodically with grease to ensure smooth operation.
•
Raise the motor unit to the highest position possible;
•
Lubricate the dove-tail guide way at both sides;
•
Lubricate the gear rack.
After repeated use, the gear rack may become loose. If necessary, adjust the 5 self-locking set
screws at the left side. Tighten screws in series until the gear rack moves freely in the dove-tail guide
but does not allow the motor to wobble.
