- Check blanking plugs of the sliding tracks on the linear guides
Orientation
When mounting the guide bars, align the screw holes of the guide bar and then
close them with a brass plug and sand them off. This will prevent damages from
sharp edges to the wipers of the tool slides.
After some time (depending on the usage profile of the machine and the
maintenance and cleaning intervals carried out), these blanking plugs show signs of
wear and must be replaced.
Requirement
Move the tool slides to a suitable position.
To replace the blanking plugs on the guide bars, the following utilities and tools are
needed:
- small hand drill,
- drill bits of various diameters and taps in various sizes,
- pin puller,
- sanding screen and a fine oil stone (-> Arkansas oil stone),
- small straight-edge.
