first needs to be removed. The double check valve is removed
from the bore hole and the bore hole and the valve are cleaned to
remove dirt and any foreign bodies.
The silencers (item 50) must be cleaned or renewed every 2
months or whenever they become blocked.
For less significant contamination, it is sufficient to blow out the
filters with air in the opposite direction. For significant
contamination, the filters should be freed of grease and oil with a
solvent. In doing so, the warning labels for hazardous substances
from the solvent manufacturer should be observed!
The fine serration of the base jaws and top jaws must be cleaned
when the hardened reversible jaws or soft top jaws are adjusted,
otherwise the run-out accuracy will be impaired.
Foreign matter, such as dust, scale, casting dust, and fine chips,
penetrates into almost every chuck, even though there is optimal
sealing provided by the hardened guide bushing in the through-
hole and by the closed base jaws. Coolant washes away lubricant.
Therefore, every chuck occasionally must be completely
disassembled, cleaned, and lubricated, and the sealing rings
replaced. The time for which the chuck can be used before full
maintenance is required depends on the level of dirt it
accumulates and the clamping frequency. As such, it is not
possible to specify a generally applicable rule for this.
Please regularly check the lathe chuck for tightness by applying a
clamping force tester over a longer period of time (> 10 min.). The
clamping force should not drop during this period. Please adjust
the inspection interval to the operating conditions of the clamping
device, however, we do recommend conducting a check every
5,000 clamping cycles at the latest.
