from the bore hole.

Tool blunt.

Operating without cooling agent.

Select another speed, feed too high.

Retract tool more often

Sharpen and replace tool.

Use coolant.

Impossible to insert holding 
taper into the spindle 
sleeve.

Remove any dirt, grease or oil from 
the internal conical surface of the 
spindle sleeve or the holding taper.

Clean surfaces well.
Keep surfaces free of grease.

Perform conventional milling.

Tighten clamping lever

Check, retighten.

Sharpen or replace tool

Secure the workpiece properly.
