Section IV: Set Up and Operation
NOTE:
Prior to installing any tooling in the press, proper
point of operation guarding, specifically designed
for your tooling, must be built and mounted on or
around your tooling.
CAUTION:
NEVER OPERATE, SERVICE OR ADJUST THIS
MACHINE WITHOUT PROPER INSTRUCTION.
NEVER SERVICE THIS MACHINE WITHOUT FIRST
SHUTTING OFF AIR SUPPLY.
NEVER OPERATE THIS MACHINE WITH SAFETY
GUARDS REMOVED.
4.1 Mount your tooling
A.
Using the tapped holes in the press platen, mount the
lower portion of your tooling to the press. The platen
is machinable and can be drilled and tapped as
necessary. The standard bore in the press ram is
.8125" with a depth of 1.5". Precisely fit your shank
to the bore of the ram and lock the shank in with the
5/16-18 hardened lock screw located on the face of
the ram. The end of the ram should bear against the
upper portion of your tooling.
NOTE:
If your tool incorporates guide pins etc., be sure
the tooling easily moves along the full length of
travel with no binding or misalignment. Correct
any problems found in the tool before placing
tooling into production.
