Install the Chip Fan
The included chip fan is designed to blow away the
wood chips and dust that accumulate on the work
surface during cutting. The chip fan slides onto the
exterior of the collet nut from the bottom. The fan
blades are designed to create a downdraft during
milling and, at the same time, keep the fan in place
on the collet nut.
1.
Slide the chip fan onto the bottom of the
collet nut.
Remove an End Mill?
To remove an end mill:
1.
Ensure the spindle has stopped and parked.
2.
Remove the chip fan, if necessary.
3.
Use the 13mm and 17mm wrenches to loosen the collet nut until the end mill can be removed from the
collet.
4.
Remove any debris from the end mill and store it in its original plastic packaging or a tool tray.
NOTE:
The
on the Carbide 3D website will walk you step-by-step through creating a
tool tray designed to hold multiple end mills, collets, and other tools. The Starter Project uses the 6
″
× 7
″
bamboo plywood included in your Nomad 3 kit.
