CHANGING OIL IN THE ANGLE GEAR
FLEXIBLE SHAFT EXTENSION
Flexible extension shafts are available for the Maxi Miller Power+ in lengths of 11 metres (36ft).
Do not

the shaft by more than
one
extension and only use a Picote Solutions shaft extension and connector.
Before attaching or removing the shaft extension always make sure that the machine is fully turned off and un-
plugged.

Machine as far as possible with the flexible shaft before fitting the extension.
2.
Remove the flexible shaft from the pipe.
3.
Push the extension down the pipe and then connect onto the existing flexible shaft using a shaft connector.

You can then carry on machining.
Note: for vertical pipes connect the extension onto the existing flexible shaft before pushing the extension down
the pipe.
The oil should be changed after every 1000 hours of use or 12 months.
