CL4-CAM Motor Assembly (VSLK)
1. Take the motor plate and pivot pin and
attach it to the VSLK unit using the 4 Allen bolts
supplied with the VSLK
Fig.6.33 .
Please note: The CL4-CAM head stock
must now be attached to the bed bars.
Follow steps 16-21 of the CL3-CAM Head
Stock Assembly instructions before
proceeding to step 2 below.
2. Take the stepped motor pulley and remove
the grub screw, this will reveal a dog grub screw,
Fig 6.34
, remove this as well. The pulley is now
ready to fit to the motor. Offer the motor unit up
to the headstock and slide the motor shaft into
the motor pulley on the inside of the headstock.
Ensure that the pivot pin is seated in the hole at
the base of the headstock
Fig.6.35 .
3. Insert the tension release lever into the
headstock
Fig.6.36 . Screw the nut onto the
thread of the tension lever which is showing
through the inside of the headstock
Fig.6.37
ensuring that the nut seats against the roll
pin. Lower the motor assembly and tighten the
tension lever to secure the motor assembly on
the headstock. Do not fully tighten yet.
4. The motor pulley should be positioned so the
grub screw insert is aligned with the groove on
the motor shaft
Fig.6.34 . The dog grub screw
should now be inserted to secure the location
of the motor pulley on the spindle. Don’t fully
tighten at this stage as the motor pulley position
may need to be adjusted.
5. Pivot the motor unit forward by lifting from
below so the drive belt can be placed onto the
motor pulley. Position the belt on the centre step
of the pulleys and lower the motor unit back
down, tensioning the drive belt. Now rotate the
thread protector by hand and inspect the drive
belt on the pulleys ensuring that it runs true
Fig.6.38 . If it doesn’t, slide the stepped pulley
along the motor shaft until the correct position
is achieved and the belt is aligned straight.
6. Now tighten the dog grub screw which has
been inserted previously. Then take the second
grub screw and tighten this in on top of the dog
grub screw locking the position of the motor
pulley
Fig.6.39 .
Finally, replace the headstock cover plate and
secure this with the Allen bolt.
The assembly of the CL4-CAM lathe is now
complete,
