Lubrication of Tool Spindle Locking Mechanism
After a long period of time, the tool spindle mechanism could stick causing it not to release the tool;
therefore, it must be periodically lubricated. See Section 10.3 for MetaFlux part number.
1.
Lightly spray MetaFlux in the grooves between the fingers of the drawbar on the tool spindle (Figure
9-4).
2.
After applying the MetaFlux, perform a number of tool changes with an HSK tool holder. This will
help distribute it evenly.
3.
Remove the HSK tool holder, and wipe away any visible lumps of grease with a clean dry cloth.
