• An intermediate flange produced by the user must be fully ma-
chined on the machine spindle and balanced and aligned be-
fore assembly of the ROTA FSW chuck quick-change.
• After assembly, ensure that the flange is in contact with the en-
tire surface.
• Then, as described in chapter "Checking the spindle nose of the
holder of the chuck quick-change"
, check the
radial and axial runout (see fig. "Assembly of the chuck quick-
change or the intermediate flange" – B)
After aligning the intermediate flange, the ROTA FSW chuck quick-
change is assembled. Remove any impurities on the intermediate
flange and the contact surfaces of the ROTA FSW chuck quick-
change.
WARNING
Risk of injury if the ROTA FSW chuck quick-change falls during
transport or assembly.
• Use a crane to assemble the ROTA FSW chuck quick-change.
This can be fastened on the eye bolt provided (see Fig. 2 "As-
sembly of the chuck quick-change or intermediate flange" –
C). The eye bolt is included in the scope of delivery.
Before commissioning the chuck quick-change ROTA FSW, the
eye bolt on the circumference must be removed.
• Push the ROTA FSW chuck quick-change onto the intermediate
flange. Ensure that the through-bores for fastening the chuck
quick-change line up with the threaded holes of the inter-
mediate flange (see Fig. "Assembly of the chuck quick-change
or intermediate flange" – D).
• Insert and slightly tighten the supplied mounting screws. Af-
terwards check the ROTA FSW chuck quick-change for run-out
accuracy on the flex taper and run-out and true running accu-
racy on the clamping equipment contact surface (see Fig. "As-
sembly of the chuck quick-change – E) and align at the outer di-
ameter with gentle taps using a plastic hammer. Then tighten
the mounting screws on the ROTA FSW chuck quick-change to
the specified torque (see chapter "Screw torques"
). Then check radial and axial run-out again (see fig.
"Assembly of the chuck quick-change or intermediate flange" –
E).
