Tank component removal consists of grasping the lid and lifting it from the cool
-
ant tank. Lids are not secured to the tank.
The tank may be cleaned by using a standard shop-vac. If excessive chip
build-up is present, use a scoop to remove the chips.
Coolant and Coolant Tank Considerations
As the machine runs the water will evaporate which will change the concentra-
tion of the coolant. Coolant is also carried out with the parts.
A proper coolant mixture is between 6% and 7%. To top-off coolant only more
coolant or deionized water should be used. Be sure that the concentration is
still within the range. A refractometer can be used to check the concentration.
Coolant should be replaced at regular intervals. A schedule should be set and
held to. This will avoid a build up of machine oil and will ensure that coolant is
within the proper concentration and lubricity.
Before moving the coolant tank for maintenance, lift out the coolant pump(s)
and set them aside.
Do not
disconnect them from the machine, and
do not
at-
tempt to move the tank away from the machine with the pump(s) installed and
connected.
Machine coolant must be water-soluble, synthetic oil based or synthetic based
coolant/lubricant.
Using mineral cutting oils will damage rubber compo
-
nents throughout the machine and void the warranty.
Coolant must have rust inhibitors. Do not use pure water as a coolant; machine
components will rust.
Do not use flammable liquids as coolant.
Acidic and high alkaline fluids will damage components throughout the ma
-
chine.
TSC Maintenance
The TSC pump is a precision gear pump and will wear out faster and lose pres
-
sure if abrasive particles are present in the coolant.
• Check the TSC filter with the system running and no tool in the spindle.
Change the filter when it becomes clogged.
• After changing or cleaning filter elements, run the TSC system with no tool in
spindle for at least one minute to prime system.
• Coolant will be used more quickly when the TSC system is in use. Make sure
to keep the coolant level up and check the level more frequently (check after
every eight hour shift).
Premature wear of the pump can result from run
-
ning with a low coolant level in the tank.
