Changeable spindle (option) (fig 25-28
The installation of the spindle arbor has to be carried out in a clean way with the utmost care. It is necessary to
clean the spindle before mounting and oil slightly before mounting. Oil slightly before installation.
Proceed as follows: put switch 2 (fig 15) on “1”, push the lever (fig 28.1) on “B”. Next the spindle has to be
turned manually in order to click into its lock.
It is necessary to wait until the spindle arrived at a complete halt before pushing down the locking lever (fig 28).
The spindle is free when the handle is put on “A”, locked when on “B”.
By turning the nut (fig 26.1) anticlockwise -right thread- with the hook-spanner, the spindle can be loosened.
Always check the nut is well tightened.
Previous to starting up the machine, the brake release switch (fig 15.2) has to be put on “0” and the lever (fig
16.1) on “A”. Check to make sure the spindle runs free.
Installation of tools
Always put the tool as low as possible on the spindle in order to minimize flexion and to obtain a major quality
of work. By means of rings with a different thickness a precise adjustment of the height can be obtained in
relation to the surface of the table. This can also be applied for the tools that are above the table.
It is important that rings and arbor are perfectly clean. Tighten the bolt after mounting (fig 27.1).
Important
Please take care the top-ring with safety bolt is well installed into the spindle groove to avoid the tools from
loosening accidently.
To secure the spindle when changing or installing tools, please check the chapter “Spindle arbor lock.”
