Bleeder Valve Leaks
If the holder leaks from the bleeder valve outlet or bleeder valve stem, the bleeder valve is damaged and should be
replaced .
Contact the factory to order a replacement valve .
Locking Collet
Not locking shaft in place
If the locking collet fails to lock the rod/shaft in place with 35 ft-lb (47 .45 Nm) of torque applied to the collet locking
bolt, the locking collet is damaged and must be replaced . Please contact the factory .
Do not interchange collets between tool holders . Collets are specially machined for each tool holder individually and cannot
be interchanged . Collet repair must be performed by the factory .
Rod/shaft marred by collet
1.
Check collet orientation . If the collet has an orientation indicator dot (see photo), the
indicator dot must always face toward the top of the holder . Collets without the indicator
dot are not dependent on orientation .
a.
If the collet is upside down, remove the locking collet bolt from the holder and gently
tap the holder on a hard surface to remove the collet .
b.
Reinstall the collet with the orientation indicator dot facing toward the top of the
holder, and then reinstall the locking collet bolt .
2.
Check the collet for wear .
– A worn collet will not distribute pressure evenly on the rod/shaft and may cause
damage .
– If the collet is worn, the entire holder must be replaced immediately . Collets are
matched to a body assembly during manufacturing and cannot be replaced separately .
