DESCRIPTION OF THE ABOVE STEPS

MACHINE HANDLING AND TRANSPORT
Machine handling from floor-transport-floor or another transport, is carried out with suitable cranes and lifting
auxiliary items, which must assure enough loading capacity to lift the load safely.
This handbook also shows how the handling operations must be performed (see page 17).
MACHINE START-UP.
The machine should be installed in a place, which is protected against inclement weather. The foundation
should have enough capacity to support the weight of the machine and it should also be tough enough to
support the machine without inadmissible deformations, which prevent the correct function of the machine.
Besides you should avoid the transmission of any vibration to the floor or structure of the place.
You should provide enough room around the machine to ease the operation, handling of materials, machine
maintenance and staff safety.
Before the start up of the machine, please note the following:
-
Skilled workers, equipped with the correct clothing and tools should carry out the start-up.
-
Make sure that the machine has enough space with or without auxiliary tables to allow and ease the safe,
working, and maintenance and repair operations.
-
Ensure that the machine foundation and vibration proof system is adequate. (Page 9).
-
Check the supply voltage.
-
Make sure that the current to be used is the same as the drilling voltage.
-
The main switch nº1 (page 4) is installed in the electric cabinet, as per drawing nº3 (page 4). - On machines
with three phase connection, the connection should be EARTH, RST and if required N (N= Neutral).
-
Before checking the turning sense, please make sure that the lever nº1 (page 4) is in "RELEASED" position.
To see that, the main spindle has to displace manually by means of the command nº2, as per drawing nº3
(page 4). See point 7 and 8.
-
When the machine is delivered with the electromagnetic clutch (EMEL), the main switch IG, as well as the
connections nº5 and the current entry nº6, are placed in the electrical cabinet nº4, as per drawing nº3 (page
4).
-
Attention, take special care of testing the main spindle turning sense, before running the tapping
system by lead screw (Extra equipment).
-
Test that the main spindle and the coolant pump (if it has) is running in the correct direction, as per indicated
on the command plate.
-
In the machines supplied with pneumatic or hydraulic equipment, adjust the airflow and the necessary
minimum pressure as per indicated in this operation handbook.
OPERATION AND ADJUSTMENT
1. Tool
setting
Always make sure that the machine is stopped.
Grip the spindle downward command with the right hand
and with the left-hand insert the tool into the spindle taper with a dead blow. Take into account that the tool
releasing tongue and the shaft housing are in the correct position. You should also take into account that the
machines equipped with automatic tool ejector, when introducing the tool as well as working on the machine
in automatic or manual, the ejector safety, has to be introduced in the upper part or in “A” position, as per
drawing nº2 (page 4).
2. Table height adjustment and support unit turning
Unlock the locking command nº12 (page 9) of the support and with vertical displacement command of the
support nº19 (page 9A), adjust the table height. Lock again the locking command nº12 (page 9) of the
support.
