To remove an ‘L’ designation, highlight the ‘L’ pocket and press the ‘SPACE’ button and then the ‘WRITE/ENTER’
button.
Note:
Large tools cannot be bigger than 9.8" (250mm).
Heavy tools
Designating a tool as "Heavy" will have no affect on tool changer speed or actions.
Installing/Removing Tools (hydraulic tool changer)
Tools can be installed into the tool changer by inserting them directly into the pockets or by installing them into the
spindle and using the ATC FWD/REV buttons on the keypad to stow the tools in the tool changer. During initial
setup, using the ATC FWD/REV buttons, the first tool inserted into the spindle will be tool T1 and will be placed
into pocket 1.
To install them directly in the tool changer chain, turn switch on the operator's sub-panel to "Manual", open the
operator door (it is at the back of the tool changer cage), and install the tool in the chain. Use the CW/CCW
buttons to move the chain to the next empty pocket. Remember to leave an empty pocket on either side of a large
tool.
Update the tool changer tool table once all the tools are installed.
Tools can be removed, by calling each tool to the spindle and removing them from it, or by taking them directly from
the chain at the operator station in the tool cage. To remove tools from the chain, turn the switch to "Manual", open
the tool-cage operator door, grasp the tool and press the foot pedal.
ATC FWD, ATC REV Operation (hydraulic tool changer)
Using ATC FWD/REV will cause the tool changer to move to the next tool pocket with respect to the tool in the
spindle. For example, if tool T15 is in the spindle and it is dedicated to pocket 20, the tool changer will put tool T15
into pocket 20 and then ATC FORWARD to pocket 21. It will not retrieve tool 16 (T16).
The ATC FWD/REV buttons will change the tool, in the spindle, to the next or previous tool. However, if the next, or
previous, tool is a pocket designated with a zero (an empty pocket) the tool changer will skip that pocket and get a
tool from a non-zero pocket.
Tool Changer Recovery (hydraulic tool changer)
The tool changer recovery mode is used to manually move the tool changer’s arm and carriage into its HOME
position.
Press the "Recover" button and follow the on-screen prompts to return the tool changer to the home position.

Jog Mode allows you to jog each of the axes to a desired location. Before jogging the axes it is necessary to home
(beginning axes reference point) the axes (See the Machine Power-up Section).
To enter jog mode press the handle jog button, then press one of the desired axes (e.g. X, Y, Z, A or B etc.) and
either use the handle jog buttons or the jog handle to move the axes. There are different increment speeds that can
be used while in jog mode they are; .0001, .001, .01 and .1.
An optional Remote Jog Handle (RJH) can also be used to jog the axes. The RJH consists of a the jog handle,
Cycle Start button, Feed Hold button, Axes selection dial and an increment dial.
To jog the axes with the optional Remote Jog Handle (RJH) select the desired axes (X, Y, Z, A, B, C or V) using the
dial, choose the increment value (X1, X10 or X100) and use the jog handle to move the axes.
Setting Offsets
In order for the mill to accurately machine a work piece, the mill needs to know where the part is located on the
table. Jog the mill with a pointer tool in the spindle, until it reaches the top left corner of the part (see the following
illustration) this position is part zero. The values will be entered into G54 on the Work Offset page.
