Home the A-axis or orient the axis before starting the removal procedure.
1.
Remove the pallet from the receiver.
2.
Remove the Z-axis way cover from the front (closest to the load station) of the rotary table.
3.
Loosen the single bolt in the switch plate assembly.
4.
Pull the switch plate assembly away from the center of the receiver.
5.
Remove the one bolt at the bottom of the rotating union. The rotary union is now loose and can be
removed; pull it straight down.
6.
Remove the bolts securing the receiver to the base.
The receiver is now ready to be removed from the machine.
7.
Use lifting equipment to remove the receiver. The receiver plate has 1/2-13 tapped holes in it so
that lifting eyes can be installed, or use straps to grip the top of the receiver. It is possible to
remove the receiver assembly through the operator door.
8.
Carefully lift the receiver assembly up; just free of the base.
9.
Note the size and position of any shims. These will need to be reinstalled in the same position in
order to keep proper alignment.
10. Completely remove the receiver form the base and out of the machine.
